Phosphorylation of STAT1 serine 727 enhances platinum resistance in uterine serous carcinoma
Uterine serous carcinoma (USC) is a highly aggressive histological subtype of endometrial cancers harboring highly metastatic and chemoresistant features. Our previous study showed that STAT1 is highly expressed in USC and acts as a key molecule that is positively correlated with tumor progression,...

Summary: | Uterine serous carcinoma (USC) is a highly aggressive histological subtype of endometrial cancers harboring highly metastatic and chemoresistant features. Our previous study showed that STAT1 is highly expressed in USC and acts as a key molecule that is positively correlated with tumor progression, but it remains unclear whether STAT1 is relevant to the malicious chemorefractory nature of USC. In the present study, we investigated the regulatory role of STAT1 toward platinum‐cytotoxicity in USC. STAT1 suppression sensitized USC cells to increase cisplatin‐mediated apoptosis (p |
