ab196478 staining STAT6 in NIH3T3 cells. The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5 min), permeabilised in 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked in 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1%PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated with ab196478 at 1/100 dilution (shown in green) and ab195889, Mouse monoclonal [DM1A] to alpha Tubulin (Alexa Fluor® 594, shown in red) at 1/167 dilution overnight at +4°C. Nuclear DNA was labelled in blue with DAPI.

Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

Overlay histogram showing NIH3T3 cells stained with ab196478 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab196478, 1/500 dilution) for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was rabbit IgG (monoclonal) Alexa Fluor® 488 used at the same concentration and conditions as the primary antibody. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control.

Acquisition of >5,000 events were collected using a 20mW Argon ion laser (488nm) and 525/30 bandpass filter.

This antibody gave a positive signal in NIH3T3 fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min used under the same conditions.

Supplementary information

STAT6 also known as Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 6 is a transcription factor with a mass of around 94 kDa. This protein is an important component in the signaling pathways that respond to cytokines especially those of the IL-4 and IL-13 receptors. STAT6 mainly expresses in immune cells including T cells B cells and macrophages. It exists in the cytoplasm until the cytokine stimulation prompts its phosphorylation and translocation to the nucleus where it influences gene expression.
Biological function summary

STAT6 plays a central role in the development and function of Th2 cells a subset of T helper cells. The protein controls genes linked to the immune response and inflammation such as IL-4 and IL-13 by binding to specific DNA sequences as part of the transcriptional complex. These processes are critical for antibody class switching in B cells and also for regulating the differentiation of T cells which are processes important in defending against parasitic infections and are linked to allergies.

Pathways

STAT6 functions mainly in the JAK-STAT signaling pathway a pathway important for transmitting information from chemical signals outside cells to the cell nucleus resulting in DNA transcription. Within this pathway STAT6 works closely with JAK1 and JAK3 kinases which phosphorylate STAT6 enabling its activation. The protein also connects with other members of the STAT family like STAT1 and STAT3 during overlapping signaling processes.

STAT6 has associations with asthma and certain types of cancer such as colorectal cancer. In asthma STAT6 influences the production of IgE and eosinophilic inflammation often connected to allergic responses. Meanwhile STAT6 promotes tumorigenesis in some cancers by regulating genes responsible for cell survival and proliferation. It connects with proteins like IL-4 and IL-13 in these disorders which suggests potential therapeutic targets for treatment.
