Abstract
We generated and characterized Atxn1L(-/-) and Atxn1(-/-); Atxn1L(-/-) mice. Atxn1L(-/-) mice have hydrocephalus, omphalocele, and lung alveolarization defects. These phenotypes are more penetrant and severe in Atxn1(-/-); Atxn1L(-/-) mice, suggesting that ATXN1 and ATXN1L are functionally redundan...

Abstract
We demonstrated that STAT3 negatively regulates type I IFN-mediated response. STAT3 knockdown or knockout cells displayed enhanced gene expression and antiviral activity in response to IFN-α/β. Restoration of STAT3 to STAT3KO cells resulted in attenuation of the response. Upon viral infection, inc...
