General nature of the STAT3-activated anti-inflammatory response.
Abstract
Although many cytokine receptors generate their signals via the STAT3 pathway, the IL-10R appears unique in promoting a potent anti-inflammatory response (AIR) via STAT3 to antagonize proinflammatory signals that activate the innate immune response. We found that heterologous cytokine receptor systems that activate STAT3 but are naturally refractory (the IL-22R), or engineered to be refractory (the IL-6, leptin, and erythropoietin receptors), to suppressor of cytokine signaling-3-mediated inhibition activate an AIR indistinguishable from IL-10. We conclude that the AIR is a generic cytokine signaling pathway dependent on STAT3 but not unique to the IL-10R.

Blocking SOCS3's ability to inhibit IL-6 signaling leads to an anti-inflammatory response indistinguishable from that induced by IL-10 in macrophages.
“Two independent experiments demonstrated that blocking SOCS3's ability to inhibit IL-6 signaling leads to an anti-inflammatory response indistinguishable from that induced by IL-10 in macrophages [12], [13].”

IL-10R has two motifs for STAT3 activation while the gp130 subunit of IL-6R has four, leading to IL-6R inducing a higher amplitude STAT3 signal.
“Another key difference between the IL-10R and the IL-6R, besides their differing interactions with SOCS3, is that the IL-10R has two motifs for STAT3 activation while the gp130 subunit of the IL-6R has four, leading to the IL-6R inducing a higher amplitude STAT3 signal [13], [27], [28].”

The altered EPOR induced an anti-inflammatory response indistinguishable from IL-10.
“This altered form of the EPOR induced an anti-inflammatory response indistinguishable from IL-10, which also supports the hypothesis that signal duration is a determinant of whether or not a response is inflammatory or anti-inflammatory [13].”

El Kasmi et al. developed a system for analyzing signal duration in inflammatory response by transfecting macrophages with an altered EPOR capable of inducing pSTAT3 and not susceptible to SOCS3 inhibition.
“As further evidence of signal duration being a defining feature in determining the inflammatory response, El Kasmi et. al. also developed a system for analyzing this problem [13]. They transfected macrophages with an altered form of the EPO receptor (EPOR), which was capable of inducing pSTAT3 and was not susceptible to SOCS3 inhibition.”

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.
