Interleukin-21 (IL-21) is produced by CD4+ T cell populations, with the highest production by T follicular helper (TFH) cells and TH17 cells, and slightly lower levels produced by natural killer T (NKT) cells.
IL-21 signals via heterodimers of the IL-21 receptor (IL-21R) and the common cytokine receptor ??-chain, (encoded by IL2RG)

TLR signaling can induces STAT1 phosphorylation via p38 and potentiate IFNG signaling.
PMID:19833085
STAT1 is activated downstream of IFNG by phosphorylation of tyrosine 701, translocates to the nucleus, binds to a regulatory DNA element termed gamma-activated sequence (GAS) and stimulates transcription of STAT1 target genes.
