JAK2 and lung carcinoma: To investigate the role of TGF-β and IL-6 in myofibroblasts (MFs) — lung cancer cell interactions, lung cancer cells (Lewis and CTM-167 cell lines) were stimulated by IL-6, MF-conditioned medium (MF-CM) or MFs, with or without TGF-β signaling inhibitor — SB431542 and/or JAK2/STAT3 inhibitor — JSI-124.
