IL-22 Protein, Human (P.pastoris, His)

Animal-derived-free IL-22 protein is a cytokine that regulates tissue responses during inflammation and contributes to epithelial cell regeneration to maintain barrier function and prevent tissue damage. IL-22 Protein, Human (P.pastoris, His) is the recombinant human-derived IL-22 protein, expressed by P. pastoris , with C-His labeled tag. The total length of IL-22 Protein, Human (P.pastoris, His) is 146 a.a., with molecular weight of ~18.1 kDa.

IL-22 Protein assumes a pivotal role in modulating tissue responses during inflammation, demonstrating a crucial involvement in the regeneration of epithelial cells to preserve barrier function following injury and forestall further tissue damage. Unlike most cytokines, IL-22 exerts no influence on immune cells, relying on a heterodimeric receptor comprising the specific IL22RA1 receptor, found on non-immune cells in various organs, and the shared subunit IL10RB. The binding of IL-22 to IL22RA1 activates the tyrosine kinases JAK1 and TYK2, subsequently triggering STAT3 activation. This, in turn, promotes cell survival and proliferation through the STAT3, ERK1/2, and PI3K/AKT pathways, contributing to the phosphorylation of GSK3B at 'Ser-9' and CTTN. Additionally, IL-22 fosters epithelial cell spreading.
