IL-17C
Interleukin-17C (IL-17C) belongs to the IL-17 cytokine family. IL-17C is predominantly expressed by epithelial cells and is produced by cells expressing Chromogranin A (enteroendocrine cells) and mucin (goblet cells). IL-17C can also be expressed in keratinocytes, mononuclear cells, and endothelial cells. IL-17C binds to its functional receptor, a heterodimer formed by IL-17RA and IL-17RE. TLR2, TLR3, and TLR5 upregulate the expression of IL-17C at mucosal surfaces. The expression of IL-17C is also regulated by cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-17A). IL-17C is an early response cytokine in the defense against bacterial pathogens and upregulates the expression of a variety of antimicrobial peptides including human beta-defensin 2 (hBD2), Lipocalin 2 (LCN2), and granzyme B. IL-17C also stimulates the release of cytokines (IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6). IL-17C is implicated in autoimmune disorders and bacterial infections[1]. Human and mouse IL-17C shares 76.68% sequence identity.

The EpCAM/TROP1 protein serves as an important homogeneous interacting molecule that promotes direct contact between intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) and intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) in the mucosal epithelium. This feature helps establish an immune barrier against mucosal infections. EpCAM/TROP1 Protein, Human (His-SUMO) is the recombinant human-derived EpCAM/TROP1 protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His, N-SUMO labeled tag.
