STAT3 dual role in sex-biased and differentiation-gated interferon gamma memory

The innate immune system possesses a unique form of memory, known as trained immunity. An initial stimulus induces cellular reprogramming for a non-specific amplified response to a subsequent challenge. This process can be achieved through gene priming, where exposure to a specific cue sensitizes future gene expression. Interferon-gamma (IFN{gamma}) memory is a specialized form of priming, where…
