P. Martensen (Aarhus University, Denmark) gave a presentation “Folate receptor alpha and STAT3 activation” that extended her previous in vitro observations that folic acid can activate STAT3 through FRα in a Janus Kinase (JAK)-dependent manner, and that gp130 functions as a transducing receptor for this signaling in the FRα-expressing tumor cells [21] (see Fig. 1, left side). This evidence concerns the gene STAT3 and neoplasm.
