About Nifuroxazide
Nifuroxazide is a nitrofuran compound inhibitor of STAT transcription factor signaling. Nifuroxazide is described to block constitutive phosphorylation of STAT3 by reducing Jak kinase autophosphorylation, decreasing the viability of myeloma cells depending on constitutive STAT3 activity for survival while not affecting normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
Nifuroxazide produces decreases in tyrosine phosphorylation of Jak2 and Tyk2, and showed no effects on EGF receptor tyrosine kinase or Src kinase.
