The Janus family of tyrosine kinases (JAK) and the signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) family is a major signaling pathway involved in cellular metabolism. The JAK/STAT signaling pathway is also involved in several cellular processes, such as proliferation, apoptosis, differentiation and migration. Additionally, dysregulation of the JAK/STAT signaling pathway is linked with a wide range of leukemias, lymphomas, head & neck cancers, melanomas and breast cancers. STAT proteins are activated by cytokines and other receptor kinases, including EGFR, FGFR, CSF1R, PDGFR and other G-protein coupled receptors. Transcription factor and receptor are often expressed at very low levels and therefore development of highly sensitive antibody has been difficult. The ultra-high sensitivity and specificity of the RNAscope™ assay provides an alternative robust detection method of these hard to detect mRNA targets.
