In this study, He et al. investigated how gain-of-function PDGFRβ mutations cause human disease, specifically whether PDGFRB mutations alone are responsible for genetic diseases characterized by musculoskeletal wasting or overgrowth. Using a genetic approach, their findings suggest a molecular mechanism by which STAT1 suppresses PDGFRβ-driven fibrosis and bone growth.
STAT1 modulates tissue wasting or overgrowth downstream from PDGFRβ
