Associations among Genotype 1b Hepatitis C Virus Core Protein, Protein Kinase R, and Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Because hepatitis C virus (HCV) core protein (Core), protein kinase R (PKR), and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) all play relevant roles in the pathogenesis of HCV, persistent infection and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and PKR may interact with HCV Core. In this study, we further investigate the associations among HCV Core, PKR, and STAT3 and the...
متن کاملEnhanced Protein Expression of Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 and Protein Kinase Substrate p36 in Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Background : Signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3) and protein kinase substrate p36 may be involved in cell proliferation, differentiation and growth. Methods : Immunohistochemistry for STAT3 and p36 was performed in 46 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Results : STAT3 staining was present in the cytoplasm and/or nucleus, while p36 staining was present in the ...
متن کاملInterleukin-6 induction of protein s is regulated through signal transducer and activator of transcription 3.
OBJECTIVE The protein C anticoagulant pathway is an essential process for attenuating thrombin generation by the membrane-bound procoagulant complexes tenase and prothrombinase. In this pathway, protein S (PS) serves as a cofactor for activated protein C. PS circulates in plasma both in a free form and in complex with complement component 4b-binding protein (C4BP). C4BP is a known acute phase r...
متن کاملRaf Kinase Inhibitor Protein (RKIP) Blocks Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (STAT3) Activation in Breast and Prostate Cancer
Raf kinase inhibitor protein (RKIP) is a member of the phosphatidylethanolamine-binding-protein (PEBP) family that modulates the action of many kinases involved in cellular growth, apoptosis, epithelial to mesenchymal transition, motility, invasion and metastasis. Previously, we described an inverse association between RKIP and signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3) expres...
متن کاملImplication of protein kinase R Gene quantification in hepatitis C Virus Genotype 4 induced Hepatocarcinogenesis
BACKGROUND Protein kinase RNA (PKR-regulated) is a double-stranded RNA activated protein kinase whose expression is induced by interferon. The role of PKR in cell growth regulation is controversial, with some studies supporting a tumour suppressor function and others suggesting a growth-promoting role. However, it is possible that the function of PKR varies with the type of cancer in question. ...
متن کاملExtracellular signal-regulated kinase mitogen-activated protein kinase-dependent SOCS-3 gene induction requires c-Jun, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3, and specificity protein 3 transcription factors.
SOCS-3 gene induction by cAMP-elevating agents or the protein kinase C (PKC) activator, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), in primary HUVECs was found to require PKCη- and PKCε-dependent extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation. The minimal, ERK-responsive element of the SOCS-3 promoter was localized to a region spanning nucleotides -107 to the transcription start site and con...
