Additionally, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) activation was suppressed by RA in human osteosarcoma, and this suppression was restored by GSH, SP600125, and JNK-shRNA.
AK093407 is highly expressed in osteosarcoma cells and tissues, and promotes cell proliferation and viability and inhibits apoptosis of osteosarcoma cell line U-2OS via STAT3 activation.
Collectively, the results of this study demonstrated that BD exerts a strong inhibitory effect on tumor growth and stem cell like traits of osteosarcoma which may be partially due to STAT3 inhibition, suggesting that BD maybe a promising therapeutic candidate against osteosarcoma.
In this study, we investigated the antitumor effect of napabucasin (NP) (BBI608), an inhibitor of STAT3 on osteosarcoma in vitro and in vivo and studied the underlying molecular mechanism.
In summary, the present studies revealed that the loss of CtBP2 constrained distant metastasis through the JAK1/Stat3 pathway in OS, suggesting that targeting CtBP2 may be a practical anti-tumor approach to prevent OS tumor progression.
The aims of this study were to determine the effect of curcumin on osteosarcoma (OS) cells due to inactivation of the p-JAK2/p-STAT3 pathway and evaluate the prognostic value of this pathway in OS.
In addition, we detected the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) in osteosarcoma cell treated with Eag1 small interfering RNAs (siRNAs).
Our findings provide information about the underlying mechanisms of miR-204/14-3-3ζ in OS cell proliferation through the STAT3 pathway, and suggest miR-204 and 14-3-3ζ as potential therapeutic targets in OS.
Therefore, the discovery of novel molecular compounds that can effectively block STAT3 activation, is essential for the treatment of OS and improving prognosis.
The findings demonstrated that ginkgetin exerts growth inhibitory and apoptotic effects on osteosarcoma cells through the inhibition of STAT3 and activation of caspase-3/9.
In this study, we identify Toosendanin (TSN) is an effective inhibitor of STAT3, leading to the impediment of various oncogenic processes in osteosarcoma.
The inhibition of STAT3 in Saos-2 cells by siRNA or AG490 decreased cell proliferation, migration and invasion, down-regulated the mRNA expression of Cyclin D, Bcl-xL and Survivin and enhanced the apoptotic response.
MAX interactor 1, dimerization protein (MXI1), STAT3 and T-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia 1 (TAL1) were significant TFs enriched with target genes in OS samples.
