IL-31 induces antitumor immunity in breast carcinoma [PDF]
Background Immunomodulatory agents that induce antitumor immunity have great potential for treatment of cancer. We have previously shown that interleukin (IL)-31, a proinflammatory cytokine from the IL-6 family, acts as an antiangiogenic agent.

Blockage of the IL-31 Pathway as a Potential Target Therapy for Atopic Dermatitis [PDF]
Atopic dermatitis (AD), a pruritic, inflammatory chronic disease with multifactorial pathogenesis, has been a therapeutic challenge. Novel target treatments aim to reduce not only the immunologic dysfunction and microbiome dysbiosis but also the recovery

IL-5, IL-31 and systemic immune-inflammation index as biomarkers predicting severity and progression in bullous pemphigoid [PDF]
IntroductionInflammatory mechanisms assume a pivotal role in bullous pemphigoid (BP). IL-31, IL-5, and the systemic immunoinflammatory index (SII) are emerging markers of inflammatory activity, but their associations with BP severity remain unclear. This

Increased serum IL-31 levels in chronic spontaneous urticaria and psoriasis with pruritic symptoms [PDF]
Background: Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is a common pruritic skin condition, the pathogenesis of which remains unclear. Interleukin-31 (IL-31) is a major pruritogenic cytokine that plays a role in inducing pruritus in various skin diseases. Aim.:

Interleukin-31 as a Clinical Target for Pruritus Treatment
In recent years, the published literature has suggested the key involvement of the cytokine interleukin-31 (IL-31) in the symptomatology of pruritus, and both IL-31 and its receptor have become potential therapeutic targets for a range of pruritic ...
