Progestins induce transcriptional activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (
These results demonstrate that progestins are able to induce Stat3 transcriptional activation, which is in turn an obligatory requirement for progestin stimulation of both in vitro and in vivo breast cancer growth.
