Abstract
⺠STAT3 induces serum amyloid A1 (SAA1) gene expression via the IL-6 transduction. ⺠No recognizable STAT3-RE is characterized near the NF-κB RE in the SAA gene promoters. ⺠A computational method was used to identify non-consensus STAT3-REs in SAA1 promoter. ⺠The candidates were evaluated with dual-luciferase reporter and DNA binding assays. ⺠By recognizing a wider array of REs, STAT3 may regulate a larger number of targets.
