Abstract

A large number of cytokines signal through the JAK–STAT pathway. Abnormal function of this pathway may lead to a variety of diseases. Targeting the defects in this signaling pathway has already led to treatment advances, and further advances are likely.

  • The JAK/STAT pathway is activated by many protein ligands, including cytokines, growth factors, interferons, and peptide hormones, and regulates cell growth, proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis.

    “This pathway is activated in response to many protein ligands, including cytokines, growth factors, interferons (IFNs), and peptide hormones, where it regulates a wide range of cellular processes, including cell growth, proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis (Rawlings et al., 2004; O’Shea et al., 2013).”

    The CYTOKINES AND JAK–STAT SIGNALING section identifies interferons, colony-stimulating factors, growth hormone, and other peptide hormones as ligands whose receptors use JAK–STAT signaling, and links these signals to growth and differentiation. The CANCER section links STAT activation to proliferation and cell survival. The source does not support the implication that growth factors generally activate this pathway, and it does not explicitly describe apoptosis as a process the pathway regulates. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
