Enhanced expression of LOC100506314 inhibited the phosphorylation of STAT3, protein kinase B (AKT), and extracellular signal-regulated protein kinases (ERK), as well as the levels of nuclear protein of p65 and the expression of IL-6 and IL-17 in Jurkat cells and T cells from patients with vitiligo. This evidence concerns the gene STAT3 and vitiligo.
