Recombinant proteinof human IL13

IL-13 is produced by T cells and is important in the TH2 response. IL-13 targets include B cells, eosinophils, fibroblasts, mast cells and macrophages (1-3). IL-13 binds specifically to IL-13Ralpha1 that complexes with IL-4Ralpha to form the Type II IL-4R. Jak1 and Tyk2 are activated and signal through Stat3 and Stat6 (6). IL-13Ralpha2 is a different gene product, lacks the intracellular domain, does not complex with IL-4Ralpha and does not signal (1, 6, 7). The extracellular domain of IL-13Ralpha2 is often elevated in diseased states. IL-13 plays key roles in airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) of allergic asthma (1, 4, 5) and modulates resistance to parasitic organisms (1).
