The Role of STATs in Inflammation and Inflammatory Diseases

Abstract

The immune response is regulated by the concerted action of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines. The deregulation of this process causes immunological disorders like allergic and autoimmune diseases. The Janus Kinase (JAK)--Signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway is one major signaling pathway converting the cytokine signal into gene expression programs regulating the proliferation and differentiation of the immune cells. Several members of the STAT protein family in particular STAT1, STAT2, STAT3, STAT4 and STAT6 act as transcription factors in modulating pro- and anti-inflammatory responses. Here we review the evidence for the involvement of the different STAT proteins in inflammation, autoimmune and allergic diseases. We discuss novel approaches to interfere with the function of these signaling transcription factors for therapeutic purpose.

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.
