    ..ChIP assays using 32D cells revealed IL-3-induced binding of STAT5A/B to a γ-interferon-activated sequences site in the Ccn3/Nov gene promoter. This is the first report that Ccn3/Nov is directly induced by cytokines through STAT5A/B...

    ..Finally, transcriptome analysis indicated that STAT5A/B directs GM-CSF signaling through the regulation of proliferation and survival genes...

    J Exp Med 206:819-31. 2009
    ..In conclusion, loss of STAT5 results in elevated TGF-beta levels and enhanced growth hormone-induced STAT3 activity. We propose that a deregulated STAT5-TGF-beta-STAT3 network contributes to the development of chronic liver disease...

    Blood 112:2071-80. 2008
    ..Chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments confirmed the binding of STAT5A/B to these sites. We conclude that STAT5A/B is an important regulator of iron update in erythroid progenitor cells via its control of Tfr1 transcription...
