The roles of STAT6 in regulating B cell fate, activation, and function.
2021
Abstract Signal transducers and activators of transcription (STATs) family of proteins are the key signal molecules in the JAK-STAT classical activation pathway of cell biology. STAT6, as a member of the STATs family, is principally activated by IL-4 and IL-13. In addition to Th2 cell differentiation, it plays a crucial role in promoting the development, differentiation, and class switching of B cells. STAT6 deficiency leads to impaired immune function, decreased glycolysis, and morphological changes in B cells, which will help develop various diseases. In this review, we will systematically summarize the major findings of how STAT6 regulates B cells to reveal the potential of STAT6 in treating human diseases.
