Protective Effect of Niclosamide on Lipopolysaccharide-induced Sepsis in Mice by Modulating STAT3 Pathway
Se Gwang JANG
Abstract:Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response, with manifestations in multiple organs by pathogenic infection. Currently, there are no promising therapeutic strategies. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is a cell signaling transcription factor. Niclosamide is an anti-helminthic drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a potential STAT3 inhibitor.
