摘要
Signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) proteins are a group of transcription factors that transmit signals from the extracellular milieu of cells to the nucleus. They are crucial for the signaling of many cytokines that are mediators of allergic inflammation and impact various cell types critical to allergy including epithelial cells, mast cells, lymphocytes, dendritic cells, and eosinophils. Dysregulation of STAT signaling has been implicated in allergic disease, highlighting the importance of these ubiquitous molecules in allergic inflammation and the potential of these pathways as a target for therapeutic intervention. This review will summarize the current understanding of the roles of STAT signaling in allergic disease and the potential of targeting STATs for the treatment of allergic disorders, emphasizing recent observations.
