Project description:Many patients have cancers that have increased activity of a protein called STAT3 that contributes critically to the development and growth of their cancer. Despite our knowledge of STAT3’s importance to cancer, scientists and doctors have not developed a drug that targets it and that patients can take to treat their cancer more effectively than treatments that are now available. Tvardi Therapeutics, Incorporated has developed a compound, TTI-101, which can be given by mouth and acts as a direct inhibitor of STAT3. Administration of TTI-101 to mice demonstrated that it blocked growth of cancers of the breast, head and neck, lung, and liver and it was safe when administered at high doses to mice, rats, and dogs. In this application, Tvardi is proposing to further develop TTI-101 for treatment of solid tumors for which the prognosis is dismal. The investigators will determine how safe it is when administered to patients with cancer, determine whether an adequate dose can be administered to patients with cancer that will block STAT3 in their cancer, and determine whether treatment with TTI-101 leads to reduced growth of their cancer.

Project description:A mutation in the Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (STAT3) has been linked to incidence of Autosomal Dominant Hyper Immunoglobulin E Syndrome (AD-HIES), a disease characterized by elevated serum IgE antibody. However, how this genetic mutation leads to the phenotype has not been fully understood. We investigated the specific role of STAT3 in the germinal center (GC) B cells and plasma cells for IgE class switching. Through the use of STAT3 conditional knockout mice in a Th2-type immunization model, we demonstrated that CD2-Cre driven STAT3 cKO mice showed elevated IgE and decreased IgG1 in the serum, and a reduction in GC formation. Within the GC, IgG1+ GC B cells were decreased while IgE+ GC B cells were more prevalent. Additionally, these mice exhibited reduced IgG1 and elevated IgE populations of antibody-producing plasma cells. Subsequent experiments using a CD19-Cre B-cell specific cKO mouse established this effect to be B-cell intrinsic. Transcription factors critical for GC and plasma cell differentiation, including Bcl-6 and Aicda, were shown to function as downstream signals of STAT3 regulation. Further ChIP-seq analysis revealed that many genes including Bcl3 and Crtc2 were among the direct STAT3 regulated targets. Mice with STAT3 deficiency in B cells also demonstrated an increase in lung inflammation when used in an asthma-like disease model. This model suggests a negative role for STAT3 in regulating class switching of the GC B cells from the IgG1 to the IgE producing state, which may serve as a therapeutic target for treatment of AD-HIES and other immune disorders.

Project description:STAT3 is determined to play a crucial role in JAK/STAT signaling pathway. The mutations and copy number alteration of STAT3 can cause cancers and other diseases. The 317-567 amino acid domain of STAT3 protein contributes to binding with genomic DNA for gene activation. However, the impact of the mutations within DNA binding domain of STAT3 on the genomic binding pattern is not fully understood. Stat3 was deleted the 400-411 amino acid residue of \\"NNGSLSAEFKHL\\" using CRISPR-CAS9 in human colon cancer cells SW480. The cells were performed STAT3 ChIP-seq to investigate the genome-wide binding pattern of STAT3 between wild type and mutant STAT3 of SW480.

Project description:Activation of Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (STAT3) is common in prostate cancers. STAT3 may induce cell proliferation and resistance to apoptosis, as well as promote tumor angiogenesis, invasion, and migration by activating gene expression. Many STAT3-dependent transcriptional responses are mediated through protein-protein interactions that involve the amino-terminal domain (N-domain). In this study, we found that inhibition of the STAT3 N-domain using novel inhibitor ST3-Hel2A-2 induces apoptotic death in prostate cancer cells. The cell death was accomponied by robust activation of pro-apoptotic gene. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation and tiling human promoter arrays (ChIP-chip), we have defined genome-wide targets of STAT3 in DU145 prostate cancer cells. We found that upregulated pro-apoptotic genes were bound by STAT3 in prostate cancer cells, and that STAT3 binding was decreased following inhibition of the STAT3 N-domain. DU145 cells were treated with ST3-Hel2A-2 or DMSO as a control for 3 hr. Total RNA has been extracted and prepared for hybridization on Affymetrix HG-U133A 2.0 arrays.

Project description:STAT3 (Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3) expression is associated with with t(12;21) acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) and it is crucial for the survival of the t(12;21) ALL . Our study investigated the STAT3 regulated pathways and discovered a novel STAT3-TP53 axis in B-ALL. In order to determine the STAT3 regulated pathways in t(12;21) ALL cells, we performed RNAseq analysis on the Pre-B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) cell line REH, treated with DMSO vehicle control in comparison to 50uM S3I-021, a specific STAT3 inhibitor

Project description:Microglia play critical roles in the maturation and refinement of neural networks of the developing brain. The goal of this study was to investigate the role of microglial STAT3 in postnatal brain development. This experiment was aimed to determine gene profiles (RNA-seq) of wild-type and Stat3 mutant microglia. Cx3cr1CreERT2/+:Stat3loxP mice were generated to achieve tamoxifen-inducible deletion of exon 22 of the Stat3 gene in microglia. mRNA was prepared from acutely isolated microglia from postnatal day 8 (P8) pups that received tamoxifen from postnatal day 1 to 3. Overall, we found that Stat3 mutant produced signficantly higher levels of inlfammatory cytokines and had compromised DNA damage checkpoints.
