## Abstract Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is activated in a variety of human cancers, including ovarian cancer. The molecular mechanism by which the STAT3 is activated in cancer cells is poorly understood. We observed that human ovarian xenograft tumors (A2780) in mice

## Abstract Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (Stat3) is one of a family of cytoplasmic proteins that participate in normal cellular responses to cytokines and growth factors as transcription factors. Stat3 modulates various physiological functions including cell survival, cellβcyc
## Abstract Stat3 expression in cancer may have important prognostic and therapeutic value, but there has been no reports correlating Stat3 expression with prognosis in patients with osteosarcoma. The goal of this study is to correlate patient prognosis with the expression of Stat3 in osteosarcoma
We have demonstrated that constitutive signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 3 activity, observed in approximately 50% of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases, is associated with adverse treatment outcome. Constitutive STAT3 activation may result from the expression of oncogenic prot
Epidemiological studies indicate that overweight and obesity are associated with increased cancer risk. To study how obesity augments cancer risk and development, we focused on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the common form of liver cancer whose occurrence and progression are the most strongly affe
