IL-27 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

IL-27 (Interleukin-27) is a heterodimeric cytokine of the IL-12 family, composed of two subunits, EBI3 (Epstein-Barr-virus-induced molecule 3) and p28. IL-27 enhances the development, proliferation, and cytotoxic activity of CD8+ T cells, thereby indirectly promoting anti-tumor immunity[ 2]. IL-27 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is a recombinant protein with a His label that consists of two subunits, EBI3 (IL27B) (209 amino acids (Y19-P228)) and IL27A (205 amino acids (F29-S234)), and is produced by HEK293 cells.

Biological Activity

Description

IL-27 (Interleukin-27) is a heterodimeric cytokine of the IL-12 family, composed of two subunits, EBI3 (Epstein-Barr-virus-induced molecule 3) and p28[1]. IL-27 enhances the development, proliferation, and cytotoxic activity of CD8+ T cells, thereby indirectly promoting anti-tumor immunity[ 2]. IL-27 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is a recombinant protein with a His label that consists of two subunits, EBI3 (IL27B) (209 amino acids (Y19-P228)) and IL27A (205 amino acids (F29-S234)), and is produced by HEK293 cells.

Background

IL-27 is mainly produced by cells of myeloid origin such as monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, and microglial cells, in response to stimuli acting through Toll-like receptors or TNF-R-family members[3].
The amino acid sequence of human IL-27 protein has low homology for mouse IL-27 protein.
IL-27 acts through a heterodimer receptor consisting of IL-27Rα (WSX1) and gp130 chains, activates the JAK/STAT signaling pathway, which mainly involves STAT1 and STAT3 phosphorylation. STAT3 activation by IL-27 induces the expression of SOCS3, which inhibits further IL-27 signaling in a negative feedback loop, through inhibition of JAK activity[3].
IL-27 plays multiple roles in proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory immune responses. IL-27 enhances NF-κB/AP-1 activity and increases IL-12p40, TNF-α, and IL-6 production, increases TLR4 and TLR5 expression[5]. IL-27 exerts inhibitory effects upon hPMSC adherence and proliferation, and promotes migration of hPMSCs. Besides, IL-27 can upregulate PDL1 expression and enhance the regulatory effects of hPMSCs on Th1 and Th2 cell differentiations and IL-10 secretion from CD4+T cells[6]. IL-27 induces the proliferation and differentiation in hematopoietic stem cells[7]. IL-27 increases IL-10 levels and the expression of p-STAT1, p-STAT3[8]. IL-27 promotes the development and differentiation of CD4+IL-10+ T cells[9].

In Vitro

IL-27 (mouse) (10 ng/mL; 7, 14, 21 days) enhances the differentiation of CD34−KSL HSCs[7].
IL-27 (mouse) (2, 10, 25, 50 ng) increases the expression of p-STAT1, p-STAT3[8].
IL-27 (mouse) (20 ng/ml) significantly up-regulates the differentiation of CD4+IL-10+ T cells[9].

In Vivo

IL-27 (mouse) (500, 1000 ng; p.o.; daily for 5 days) increases IL-10 levels in the circulation but not in the distal colon in Rag-/- mice [8].
IL-27 (mouse) (200 ng/mouse; i.p.; daily for 7 days) up-regulates CD4+IL-10+ T cells and suppress inflammation in NOD mice[9].
