Abstract excerpt
The regulatory function of caveolin-2 in signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling by insulin was investigated. Insulin-induced increase in phosphorylation of STAT3 was reduced by caveolin-2 siRNA. Mutagenesis studies identified that phosphorylation of tyrosines 19 and 27 on caveolin-2 is required for the STAT3 activation. Caveolin-2 Y27A mutation decreased insulin-induced...
