Activity summary

STAT5a also known as Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 5A acts as a transcription factor in the cell. STAT5a weighs approximately 90 kDa and expresses in various tissues including the liver muscle and hematopoietic cells. It plays a central role in mediating cellular responses to cytokines and growth factors particularly those in the interleukin-2 (IL-2) family and growth hormone (GH).

Biological function summary

Many systems use STAT5a to regulate cell proliferation differentiation and survival. It often forms a complex with other proteins like STAT5b which is a closely related counterpart and both contribute to similar cellular processes. STAT5a can dimerize upon activation allowing it to move to the cell nucleus to influence gene expression directly.

Pathways

Researchers place STAT5a prominently in the JAK-STAT signaling pathway. This pathway is essential for transmitting information received from extracellular chemical signals to the cell nucleus resulting in the activation of genes controlling cellular functions. STAT5a works together with Janus kinases (JAKs) to mediate various biological responses including hormone signaling and immune function. It also interacts with proteins like IL-2 receptor subunits which are involved in many cytokine-driven processes.

Associated diseases and disorders

Disturbances in STAT5a activity link specifically with conditions like leukemia and breast cancer. Overactivation or mutation can lead to uncontrolled cell growth and survival contributing to these diseases. In leukemia STAT5a frequently partners with other proteins like BCR-ABL which is known for its role in chronic myeloid leukemia influencing oncogenic pathways. In breast cancer alterations in STAT5a signaling may interact with estrogen and progesterone receptors affecting tumor progression and response to therapies.

    Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Alexa Fluor® 555 Anti-STAT5a antibody [E289] (ab279325)

    Immunofluorescence staining of STAT5a staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded human lung carcinoma.

    Performed on a Leica BOND. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with EDTA (pH9.0) using retrieval settings of 110°C for 20 minutes. The section was then incubated at room temperature for 1 hour with ab279325 at 1/50 dilution (shown in red) and counterstained using Alexa Fluor® 488 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker ab195887, Ms anti-Tubulin (A488) (1/250) at 1/250 dilution (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). The section was then mounted using Dako Fluorescence Mounting Medium®.

    Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

    For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated), customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, antibody concentrations and incubation times.
