Targeted blockade of TGF-β and IL-6/JAK2/STAT3 pathways inhibits lung cancer growth promoted by bone marrow-derived myofibroblasts
Abstract 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...
