Stat proteins 1 alpha, 3, 5A, 5B, and 6 are phosphorylated in response to IL-13.
IL-4, in contrast to IL-13, induced very low levels of phosphorylation of Stats 1 and 5 and a more robust phosphorylation of Stat3 and Stat6.

Jak1 is required for Stat6 (TYR641) activation in monocytes stimulated with IL-4
PMID:14610620
When the type I
or type II IL-4R is dimerized, JAKs associated with
the receptor components phosphorylate the second,
third, or fourth tyrosine residues of the IL-4Ra cytoplasmic domain [50]. This phosphorylation recruits
Stat6, which is then also phosphorylated. PhosphoStat6 molecules dimerize and migrate to the nucleus to
bind to certain promoters.

SOCS1 inhibits STAT6 activation downstream of IFNG and downregulates IL4 signaling pathway.

STAT6-deficient mice produce M1 macrophages.
STAT6 deficiency prevents signaling through the type 2 IL-4Ralpha, thereby blocking the production of arginase and promoting the synthesis of NO in MDSC.

GM-CSF can activate STAT6 in murine BM-DC

Additionally IL4 via IL-4R type I JAK3 and STAT6 (but not IL13) upregulates production of IL12p70
