Abrogation of Bronchial Eosinophilic Inflammation and Airway Hyperreactivity in Signal Transducers and Activators of Transcription (STAT)6-deficient Mice

Signal transducers and activators of transcription 6 (STAT6) is essential for interleukin 4–mediated responses, including class switching to IgE and induction of type 2 T helper cells. To investigate the role of STAT6 in allergic asthma in vivo, we developed a murine model of allergen-induced airway...
