Linear and cooperative signaling: roles for Stat proteins in the regulation of cell survival and apoptosis in the mammary epithelium
@article{Groner2000LinearAC, title={Linear and cooperative signaling: roles for Stat proteins in the regulation of cell survival and apoptosis in the mammary epithelium}, author={Bernd Groner and Lothar Hennighausen}, journal={Breast Cancer Research}, year={2000}, volume={2}, pages={149 - 153} }
The mammary epithelium undergoes cyclical periods of cellular proliferation, differentiation and regression. These processes are under the control of the hormones secreted during pregnancy, lactation and involution. Signaling pathways have been identified that connect the hormonal stimuli with the transcription of genes responsible for the determination of the cellular fate. The kinetics of induction and deinduction have suggested that cytokine-activated Stat proteins play a crucial role. Stat5…

It is demonstrated that OSM induces up-regulation of C/EBP via a Stat3dependent pathway in mammary epithelial cells and that the growth inhibition induced by OSM depends on the presence of C-EBP, which is inversely correlated with the histological grade of malignancy.
