Epigenetic regulation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 in acute myeloid leukemia

Abstract: 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 protein tyrosine kinases or from autocrine stimulation by hematopoietic growth factors. These causes are generally neither necessary nor sufficient for leukemogenesis; additional transforming events or growth stimulator… Show more

“…Also, the 5′ flanking site of SOCS‐1 contains Sp‐1 binding sites, but the presence of IFN‐stimulated responsive element and IFNγ‐activated site promoter elements determines IFNγ‐induced SOCS1 expression. In this context, it is interesting to note that both SOCS proteins can be differentially regulated by transcription factors and epigenetic changes at the transcription level (23–25).…”

“… 7 Studies of solid and hematological malignancies have also highlighted the role of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) in the stimulation of cellular proliferation and survival. 11 , 12 , 13 Enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT3 whether due to increased secretion of cytokines, such as IL-6(ref. 14 ) or mutations in receptor tyrosine kinases (for example, FLT3 duplications 15 or less frequently JAK2) 16 is seen in up to 50% of AML cases and signifies a worse prognosis.…”

“…Increased activity of STAT3 has been reported in 20-50% of AML patients while STAT5 and STAT1 activation is uncommon [49,50]. The pathologic value of activated STAT3 in AML is unclear.…”
