Research Abstract |
Since we cloned interleukin-6 (IL-6) as B cell stimulatory factor 2 in 1986, IL-6 has been reported to influence cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival as well as mature cell functions. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is a key molecule to mediate IL-6-induced cellular events. Indeed, STAT3 is activated in many tumor tissues, and the dimmer of STAT3 promotes cellular transformation, indicating that STAT3 itself can act as a proto-oncogene. In addition to oncogenesis, IL-6/STAT3 axis influences host immune systems. For example, IL-6/STAT3 axis is involved in the Toll-like receptor signaling pathways, the development and maturation of dendritic cells, and the differentiation of Th17 T-cell subset. These facts are likely to suggest that manipulation of IL-6/STAT3 signals could be suitable target for a variety of disease such as cancer and autoimmune diseases. We have energetically examined regulatory mechanisms of IL-6/STAT3-mediated signal transduction for the development of novel therapeutic strategies.
