Recombinant Human IL-22 (I-230-1.0mg)

IL (interleukin)-22 is an IL-10 homologue, produced by activated T cells that binds to and signals via the class II cytokine receptor (R) heterodimer IL-22RA1/CFR2-4 (IL-10R2).1 IL-22 regulates the production of acute phase proteins of the immunological response. On binding to its cognate receptor (IL-22R1), which is associated to the interleukin-10 receptor 2, IL-22 promotes activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway and several other cellular responses.2 IL-22 plays an important role in skin inflammatory processes and wound healing.3
