Inflammation, Immunity, and Cancer: The Role of Transcription Factors NF-kB and STAT3
Year: 2010
Type: article
Abstract: A link between inflammation and cancer has long been suspected. Recent studies have identified the role of transcription factors nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) in inflammation-induced tumor. In this review, we focus on the role of NF-kB and STAT3 in regulating functions of cancer cells and surrounding nontumorigenic cells to create a tumor microenvironment that enhance tumor promotion and progression. Key word: inflammation, cancer, NF-kB, STAT3
