Abstract:To the Editor, Janus kinase (JAK) and signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathways are among the major cellular pathways that integrates signals from cytokines, growth factors and hormones to regulate proliferation, survival, differentiation, as well as apoptosis. 1 STAT proteins are critical mediators of cytokine signals that regulate gene expression programs underlying key processes involved in the immune system. STAT5B is a cytosolic protein involved in signal transduction in response to… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
