Fig. 1 IL6 cellular pathways, IL-6 induces homodimerization of gp130 then activates JAK family tyrosine kinases, JAKs induce tyrosine phosphorylation of gp130 and recruitment of STAT3 via the SH2 domain. Followed by phosphorylation of STAT3 by JAKs, it will translocate into the nucleus to regulate gene activation.
