Anti-Human IL-17E (I-410-100ug)

Interleukin (IL)-17E, is a novel member of the IL-17 family of cytokines1 and a unique pleiotropic cytokine and may be an important mediator of inflammatory and immune responses.2 IL17B is also a ligand for the cytokine receptor IL17BR. IL-17E induces activation of NF-kappaB and stimulates production of the proinflammatory chemokine IL-8. 1 IL-17E may contribute to the induction and maintenance of eosinophilic inflammation in the airways by acting on lung fibroblasts and therefore has a role in asthma pathophysiology.3
