Nuclear phosphorylated STAT3 abundance in human cells

2 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.

How nutrients influence it

Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.

How nutrients reach it in more than one step

Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What acts on it

  1. APT2 knockdown reduced nuclear p-STAT3 in the HEK293T fractionation experiment.

    Experimental context and source evidence
    availability_state
    machinery_impairment Imported condition classification; unverified.
    experimental_model
    Human HEK293T subcellular fractionation
    exposure
    LYPLA2 siRNA; exact dose/duration for this panel unresolved.
    limitations
    Reported cellular result, not a GPX4 time-course experiment. Overexpressed DHHC constructs in much of the study are mouse proteins; human constructs are explicitly identified only where confirmed. APT2 depletion, selective inhibitor exposure and sulforaphane are different interventions.

  2. Solasonine reduced nuclear phosphorylated STAT3, with cytoplasmic accumulation.

    Experimental context and source evidence
    experimental_model
    Human NOZ and GBC-SD gallbladder cancer cells
    exposure
    Methods 2.2 describes 48-hour cellular drug treatments with refresh at 24 hours; exact concentration must be checked per figure and is not inferred from another assay.
    limitations
    Human cancer-cell experiments; no clinical or dietary inference. Solasonine exposure is not equivalent to APT2 depletion, ML349, or sulforaphane. Mutant rescue does not by itself establish selectivity or normal baseline mutant function. Figure 5C calls this APT2 activity, but Methods 2.17 describes an anti-LYPLA2 ELISA with mass-concentration standards and an HRP/TMB readout from cell supernatants. No direct APT2 substrate-turnover assay is described there. The result is retained as an author-labelled activity proxy, not established catalytic inhibition. This methodological qualification does not invalidate the separately reported binding or cellular observations.
