IL-11 Protein, Mouse

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

IL-11 protein is a multifunctional cytokine that stimulates the proliferation of hematopoietic stem cells and megakaryocyte progenitor cells and induces megakaryocyte maturation to increase platelet production. It also contributes to liver cell proliferation in response to liver injury. IL-11 Protein, Mouse is the recombinant mouse-derived IL-11 protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free.

Biological Activity

Description

IL-11 protein is a multifunctional cytokine that stimulates the proliferation of hematopoietic stem cells and megakaryocyte progenitor cells and induces megakaryocyte maturation to increase platelet production. It also contributes to liver cell proliferation in response to liver injury. IL-11 Protein, Mouse is the recombinant mouse-derived IL-11 protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free.

Background

The IL-11 Protein emerges as a versatile cytokine with multifaceted roles, stimulating the proliferation of hematopoietic stem cells and megakaryocyte progenitor cells while inducing megakaryocyte maturation, leading to heightened platelet production. Additionally, IL-11 contributes to hepatocyte proliferation in response to liver damage. Upon binding to its receptor, formed by IL6ST and either IL11RA1 or IL11RA2, IL-11 activates a signaling cascade promoting cell proliferation, a process implicated in various cancers. This signaling triggers the activation of intracellular protein kinases and the phosphorylation of STAT3. Notably, the interaction with membrane-bound IL11RA and IL6ST leads to 'classic signaling,' while the binding of soluble IL11RA to IL6ST stimulates 'trans-signaling.' IL-11 further forms a multimeric signaling complex by interacting with either IL11RA1 or IL11RA2, highlighting its pivotal role in orchestrating diverse cellular responses.
