Endogenous IL-33 and Its Autoamplification of IL-33/ST2 Pathway Play an Important Role in Asthma. [PDF]
IL-33 and its receptor ST2 are contributing factors to airway inflammation and asthma exacerbation. The IL-33/ST2 signaling pathway is involved in both the onset and the acute exacerbations of asthma.

Interleukin-33 produced by M2 macrophages and other immune cells contributes to Th2 immune reaction of IgG4-related disease [PDF]
IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is characterized by elevated serum IgG4 and marked infiltration of IgG4-positive cells in multiple organs. Interleukin-33 (IL-33) is a recently described cytokine that is secreted by damaged epithelial cells, macrophages ...

IL-33 and IL-18 in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Etiology and Microbial Interactions
The IL-1 cytokines are a newly expanded family, with each of its 11 members playing an important role in health and disease. Typically acting as pro- or anti-inflammatory mediators of first-line innate immunity, their production is particularly important

Interleukin-31: A Pro-inflammatory Oriented Cytokine
Type 2 immunity is represented by T helper 2 (Th2) lymphocytes and the cytokines produced downstream (Interleukin (IL)-4, IL-13, IL-31). They are increasingly recognized as pivotal mediators in the pathogenesis of immune-mediated dermatological ...

Evaluation of Serum IL-33, IL-5 and Trace Elements Levels among Asthmatic Patients
The precise relationship between interleukins-33 and IL-5, as well as some trace elements and asthma, is unknown. The target of research was to compare and link the above-mentioned serological parameters in asthmatic patients and healthy controls.

IL-33 Ameliorates the Development of MSU-Induced Inflammation Through Expanding MDSCs-Like Cells
Interleukin-33 (IL-33), a member of the IL-1 superfamily, has been shown to play a critical role in many diseases through regulating the immune cell responses, including myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). Our previous study demonstrated that IL-33
