STAT3 deletion during hematopoiesis causes Crohn’s disease-like pathogenesis and lethality: a critical role of STAT3 in innate immunity
Open accessAbstract
Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is a key transcriptional mediator for many cytokines and is essential for normal embryonic development. We have generated a unique strain of mice with tissue-specific disruption of STAT3 in bone marrow cells during hematopoiesis. This specific STAT3 deletion causes death of these mice within 4-6 weeks after birth with Crohn's disease-like pathogenesis in both the small and large intestine, including segmental inflammatory cell infiltration, ulceration, bowel wall thickening, and granuloma formation. Deletion of STAT3 causes significantly increased cell autonomous proliferation of cells of the myeloid lineage, both in vivo and in vitro. Most importantly, Stat3 deletion during hematopoiesis causes overly pseudoactivated innate immune responses. Although inflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor alpha and IFN-gamma, are overly produced in these mice, the NAPDH oxidase activity, which is involved in antimicrobial and innate immune responses, is inhibited. The signaling responses to lipopolysaccharide are changed in the absence of STAT3, leading to enhanced NF-kappa B activation. Our results suggest a model in which STAT3 has critical roles in the development and regulation of innate immunity, and deletion of STAT3 during hematopoiesis results in abnormalities in myeloid cells and causes Crohn's disease-like pathogenesis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
