Fig. 2. Stat6 decoy inhibits mRNA expression of IL-4 but not other cytokines. / RNA for RPA analysis was obtained from untreated control samples (lanes a, b, g), Stat6 decoy (lane c), scrambled (lane d) ODN-transfected D10 cells, or cells pretreated with anti–IL-3 or anti–IL-4 antibodies (lanes e and f, respectively). Cells were stimulated with IL-4 (lanes b through d). RNA was isolated and hybridized with [33P]-labeled RNA probes corresponding to transcripts for murine cytokines (mCK1). The RNase-protected fragments were separated on 5% PAGE, dried, and exposed to x-ray. Densitometric analysis of IL-4 RNA message compared with L32/GAPDH indicated a greater than 90% reduction in Stat6 decoy–treated samples.
