Disruption of Stat3 reveals a critical role in both the initiation and the promotion stages of epithelial carcinogenesis
2004-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Constitutive activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (Stat3) has been found in a wide spectrum of human malignancies. Here, we have assessed the effect of Stat3 deficiency on skin tumor development using the 2-stage chemical carcinogenesis model. The epidermis of Stat3-deficient mice showed a significantly reduced proliferative response following treatment with the tumor promoter 12-O-tetr...
