CD218a/IL-18R alpha
IL-18R alpha (interleukin-18 receptor alpha) is an interleukin receptor of the immunoglobulin superfamily. IL-18 forms a signalling complex with the IL-18 receptor α (Rα) and β (Rβ) chains at the plasma membrane, which induces multiple inflammatory cytokines[1]. IL-18R complex recruits the IL-1R- activating kinase and TNF- associated factor 6, which phosphorylates nuclear factor kβ- inducing kinase, with subsequent activation of nuclear factor kβ[2]. IL-18R alpha inhibits the production of IFN-γ stimulated with the combination of rhIL-2 and rhIL-18[3].

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.
