IL15
Some search terms matchedIL15 encodes a cytokine involved in the survival and activity of immune cells, including natural killer cells and memory CD8 T cells. Its receptor system includes IL15RA.
Also called:
Supporting immune-cell survival
IL15 encodes a cytokine…
IL15RA
Some search terms matchedIL15RA encodes the alpha receptor component for IL-15. It helps present IL-15 to responding immune cells, supporting communication that is important for particular lymphocyte populations.
Also called:
Presenting IL-15 to responding cells
I…
IL16
Some search terms matchedIL16 encodes interleukin-16, a cytokine involved in attracting and influencing immune cells, including CD4-expressing cells. Its recruitment role helps separate it from other numbered interleukins.
Also called:
A cytokine involved in immun…
IL17A
Some search terms matchedIL17A encodes interleukin-17A, a cytokine involved in defense at tissue barriers and inflammatory signaling. It belongs to the Th17 pathway, which is supported by signals including IL-23.
Also called:
Th17 signaling and persistent inflamma…
IL18
Some search terms matchedIL18 encodes interleukin-18, a cytokine that can promote interferon-gamma responses in the appropriate immune context. Its receptor includes components encoded by IL18R1 and IL18RAP.
Also called:
An inflammatory signal that connects to int…
IL18R1
Some search terms matchedIL18R1 encodes a component of the receptor for IL-18. It works with an accessory component, IL18RAP, to support IL-18 signaling.
Also called:
The binding side of the IL-18 receptor
IL18R1 encodes a component of the receptor for IL-18. It w…
IL18RAP
Some search terms matchedIL18RAP encodes an accessory protein in the IL-18 receptor complex. The receptor needs coordinated components to translate an extracellular signal into a cellular response.
Also called:
The accessory component of IL-18 signaling
IL18RAP en…
IL1B
Some search terms matchedIL1B encodes interleukin-1 beta, a cytokine involved in inflammatory responses and fever. Its production and activation are regulated processes, not simply an on/off consequence of having a common SNP.
Also called:
IL-1β and the early infl…
IL22
Some search terms matchedIL22 encodes a cytokine that acts on tissues such as epithelial barriers. It can support barrier defense and repair, while its effects depend on the tissue and inflammatory setting.
Also called:
Barrier defense, repair and excess tissue gr…
IL23A
Some search terms matchedIL23A encodes the p19 subunit of interleukin-23. Together with the p40 subunit encoded by IL12B, it forms a cytokine involved in supporting Th17 responses.
Also called:
The p19 component of IL-23
IL23A encodes the p19 subunit of interleuki…
IL2RA
Some search terms matchedIL2RA encodes the alpha chain of the interleukin-2 receptor, also called CD25. It is involved in immune activation and regulatory T-cell biology; a soluble receptor measurement is distinct from a DNA result.
Also called:
CD25 and immune-ce…
IL33
Some search terms matchedIL33 encodes interleukin-33, a signal that can act as an alarmin during tissue stress and promote type 2 immune responses. It belongs in a different functional group from chemokines that recruit cells.
Also called:
An alarmin in allergic s…
Best match puts all-term matches before partial matches and related reading. Identical social posts and matching long titles across other sources are grouped when access is the same. Search covers published titles, descriptions, available article text, report overviews, and the full text of the nutrient, gene and learning-essential reference pages. Books, uploaded chapters and downloads-page reports are searchable through selected editorial guides and topic names; the original files and full book text are not published. Full Drive reports are not copied into search. Substack subscriber titles and public summaries are included; full subscriber content opens on Substack. Video transcripts are added when available.
