"Furthermore, we showed that the small molecule gp130 inhibitor SC144 suppresses the PDAC cell viability and proliferation and inhibits IL-6 and OSM-induced gp130/STAT3 signaling in vitro.Our previous study on tissue micro-arrays from a cohort of 175 patients with PDAC showed that STAT3, phosphorylated STAT3, and IL-6 were expressed in more than half of the examined pancreatic tumors, supporting the importance of this pathway in pancreatic cancer (Pozios et al. 2018)."

"Since the IL-6 family is thought to have the highest degree of functional pleiotropy and redundancy in triggering the health- and disease-related responses of all cytokine families [27], the unique effects of OSM-activated gp130 receptor complexes feature less in the scientific focus of heart diseases."

"Oncostatin M. Oncostatin M (OSM) is an inflammatory cytokine that also belongs to the family of gp130 related cytokines, and as such, OSM stimulates transmembrane signaling by binding and activating either of two receptor complexes : (1) gp130 and LIFR (leukemia inhibitor factor receptor) heterodimers, and (2) gp130 and OSM receptor (OSMR)."

"53 As a member of the IL-6 family of cytokines, OSM has homogenous protein sequence and structure as that of other family members.57 Studies in the mouse showed that human OSM activates the heterodimer of LIF receptor B and gp130, as does CNTF.58 59 An increase in STAT3 phosphorylation was localized to Müller cells after intravitreal delivery of OSM in an ONC model, indicating that the neuroprotective effect of OSM on the RGC is medicated by Müller cells."

"Our recent research reported that OSM-mediated signaling activation through OSMR dimerization with IL6ST is important for Signaling Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (STAT3), which is known for oncogenic transformation and blocks apoptosis in both breast and ovarian cancers ."
reach
"On the molecular level this usage of OSM from different species results in the stimulation of different receptor complexes : human OSM exclusively binds to the type I gp130 and LIFR system in mouse cells; murine OSM, however, exclusively activates the type II gp130 and OSMR system."
