Specifically, infection of MAGI1-null ECs with IAV upregulates expression of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1), interferon b1 (IFNb1), myxovirus resistance protein 1 (MX1) and 2′-5′-oligoadenylate synthetase 2 (OAS2), and activate STAT5. The gene discussed is STAT5A; the disease is infection.
