Abstract
Interleukin-6 up-regulates STAT3-mediated transcription of miR214 in colon tissues, which reduces levels of PDLIM2 and PTEN, increases phosphorylation of AKT, and activates nuclear factor-κB. The activity of this circuit correlates with disease activity in patients with UC and progression to colorectal cancer.
