Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Th2 cytokines exhibit a variety of inhibitory effects on permeability barrier function via signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 (STAT6). However, the role of STAT6 signaling on the construction and/or homeostasis of permeability barrier function in the physiological state has not been fully assessed. OBJECTIVE: We compared permeability barrier function between Stat6-deficient and...
