effect on normal haematopoiesis9). In order to study the role of STAT5in IL-3 signaling, and to find new growth inhibitors of leukaemic cells, we have screened inhibitors of STAT5from microbial metabolites using a luciferase reporter system in IL-3 dependent Ba/F3 cells. The cells were transfected with reporter plasmid consisting of luciferase gene under the control of the jS-casein promoter having STAT5 binding sites. In this system, the expression of the luciferase MAY 1997

Targeting Janus kinase 3 in the treatment of leukemia and inflammatory diseases.

Preclinical data from multiple experimental model systems of autoimmune diabetes, allergy, solid organ transplantation, pancreatic islet transplantation and bone marrow transplantation are discussed in the context of the clinical need for new immunomodulatory agents with such properties.

Discovery of Three 22-Membered Macrolides by Deciphering the Streamlined Genome of Mangrove-Derived Streptomyces sp. HM190

Three 22-membered macrolides were discovered in strain HM190, a moderate halophile isolated from rhizosphere soil of the mangrove Kandelia obovata in Fugong village, China, which displayed moderate cytotoxic activities toward tumor cell lines HepG2, A549, and HCT116.

Open Chain Chiral Macrolide Building Blocks by Opening of Deoxygenated 1,6-Anhydrosugars with 1,3-Propanedithiol

Chiral building blocks for macrolides and related natural products are obtained from 1,6-anhydrosugars by conversion of the bicyclic acetals 2 or 12 into the open chain chiral 1,3-dithianes 6 and 13.…

Interleukin‐3, granulocyte‐macrophage colony stimulating factor and interleukin‐5 transduce signals through two STAT5 homologs.

Analysis of bandshift complexes with available antibodies to the known STATs suggests that IL‐3 activates the DNA‐binding ability of STAT5, a protein which was originally characterized as a prolactin‐responsive transcription factor in sheep.

Suppression of interleukin‐3‐induced gene expression by a C‐terminal truncated Stat5: role of Stat5 in proliferation.

This work constructed a dominant‐negative Stat5 protein by C‐terminal truncation, and inducibly expressed it in an IL3‐dependent cell line, providing the first direct evidence that Stat5 is involved in regulation of cell proliferation.

Signaling by the cytokine receptor superfamily: JAKs and STATs.

JAK2 associates with the beta c chain of the receptor for granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, and its activation requires the membrane-proximal region

The studies described here demonstrate that GM-CSF stimulation of cells induces the tyrosine phosphorylation of JAK2 and activates its in vitro kinase activity and further support the hypothesis that the JAK family of kinase are critical to coupling cytokine binding to tyrosines phosphorylated and ultimately mitogenesis.

Biosynthesis and 13C NMR assignment of cytovaricin, a neutral macrolide antibiotic.

13C NMR analysis of 13C-labeled cytovaricin which was obtained by feeding sodium to cultures of Streptomyces diastatochromogenes showed that the aglycone of cytoviricin is derived from nine acetate units, six propionate units and one isobutyrate unit and the methoxy group at C-3' of cymarose moiety isderived from the methionine-S-methyl group.

Bicyclic compounds as ring-constrained inhibitors of protein-tyrosine kinase p56lck.

Bicyclic analogues designed as conformationally constrained mimetics in which the phenyl ring and vinyl side chain of the cinnamamide are locked into a coplanar orientation may represent important new structural motifs for the development of p56lck inhibitors.
