IL-4-induced activation of STAT6 and STAT3 contingent on T cell CD62L status. (a) Whole spleen homogenate derived from naïve 6–8-week-old female BALB/c mice were stimulated with 50 ng/mL IL-4 in vitro for 24 h prior to flow cytometric analysis. Representative histograms showing pSTAT6 expression among pre-gated CD4 and CD8 T cells partitioned based on CD62L status. MFI (pSTAT6) of both (b) CD4 and (c) CD8 T cells. Similarly, the expression of pSTAT3 among T cell subsets with respect to CD62L was evaluated (d–f). Data are represented as mean + SD, where dots represent biological replicates from a single experiment. The experiments were repeated at least twice. Two-way ANOVA combined with Tukey’s post-hoc multiple comparison test was conducted to compare groups. p-value denotation: ‘***’p < 0.001 and ‘****’p < 0.0001.
