IL-17F Protein, Mouse
IL-17F is an inflammatory homodimeric cytokine that induces many proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines. IL-17F also induces antimicrobial peptides. IL-17F plays a protective role in colon cancer development and can be used for the research of autoimmune diseases, infection and cancer. IL-17F Protein, Mouse is a recombinant mouse IL-17F protein and is expressed in E. coli. It consists of 133 amino acids (R21-A153).

Biological Activity
IL-17F is an inflammatory homodimeric cytokine that induces many proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines. IL-17F also induces antimicrobial peptides. IL-17F plays a protective role in colon cancer development and can be used for the research of autoimmune diseases, infection and cancer[1][2]. IL-17F Protein, Mouse is a recombinant mouse IL-17F protein and is expressed in E. coli. It consists of 133 amino acids (R21-A153).
Interleukin-17F (IL-17F) belongs to the IL-17 cytokine family. IL-17F is expressed in activated CD4 T cells, activated monocytes, basophils and mast cells. IL-17F can be produced by differentiated TH17 cells, lamina propria T cells, memory CD4+ T cells, γδ T cells and NKT cells[1].
The mouse IL-17F shares 55.90% amino acid sequence identity with human and 86.34% identity with rat.
IL-17F is an inflammatory cytokine that induces many proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines, including TGF-β, IL-2, ICAM1, GM-CSF, CCL2, CCL7, TSLP, MMP13, IL-6 and CXCL1. IL-17F also induces antimicrobial peptides including hBD-2, S100A7, S100A8 and S100A9 with IL-22 and can synergize with IL-23 in human eosinophils to promote the production of IL-1β and IL-6. IL-17F is a homodimeric cytokine. IL-17F shares the most similarities with IL-17A (50% homology) and can be produced as an IL-17AF heterodimer. IL-17A, IL-17F and IL-17A/F use the same receptor complex: IL-17RA and IL-17RC heterodimer. They trigger qualitatively similar signaling pathways, and IL-17F exhibits the lowest biological activity. IL-17F shows about 100–1000 times lower affinity to the IL-17RA subunit than IL-17A, and does not compete with IL-17A binding to IL-17RA[1][2].
IL-17F plays a protective role in colon cancer development and can be used for the research of autoimmune diseases, infection and cancer[1][3][4].
