1 Phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) induced by IFN-gamma was also significantly inhibited by EGCG. epigallocatechin gallate signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 Homo sapiens
2 Phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) induced by IFN-gamma was also significantly inhibited by EGCG. epigallocatechin gallate signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 Homo sapiens
3 Reporter assays indicated that EGCG inhibited the transcriptional activities of IDO promoters, IFN-stimulated response element and IFN-gamma activation sequence, activated by STAT1 phosphorylation. epigallocatechin gallate signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 Homo sapiens
4 These findings suggest that EGCG may exert antitumor effects on CRC, at least in part, by inhibiting the expression and function of IDO through the suppression of STAT1 activation. epigallocatechin gallate signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 Homo sapiens
