Inducible, dose-adjustable and time-restricted reconstitution of STAT1 deficiency in vivo.

Signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 1 is a key player in interferon (IFN) signaling, essential in mediating host defense against viruses and other pathogens. STAT1 levels are tightly regulated and loss- or gain-of-function mutations in mice and men lead to severe diseases. We hav...
