Putative roles of STAT6 in adult myogenesis. IL-4 can activate STAT6 in myotubes. However, STAT6 inhibits myotube formation. IL-4 improves myoblast fusion independently of STAT6 activity. The IL-4-STAT6 signaling axis therefore does not account for IL-4 related myotube formation processes. The red line is based on results from this study. The black line shows data referred from earlier studies. The dashed line represents unvalidated data
