Anti-inflammatory Mechanisms of IL-38 in Chinese Patients with Allergic Rhinitis [PDF]
Background: T-helper 17 (Th17) cell response is engaged in the onset of allergic rhinitis (AR). Moreover, interleukin (IL)-38 is thought to be involved in inhibiting cytokine secretion in the Th17 pathway.Objective: To evaluate the regulatory function of

IL-38 attenuates vascular calcification by upregulating GPX3-mediated antioxidant defense via the PPAR-γ/NRF2 axis [PDF]
Vascular calcification is a pathological process commonly associated with cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and renal insufficiency, driven by inflammation, oxidative stress, and endoplasmic reticulum stress. IL-38, a member of the IL-1 cytokine family,

The emerging role of IL-38 in diseases: A comprehensive review. [PDF]
AbstractIntroductionInterleukin‐38 (IL‐38) is a new type of anti‐inflammatory cytokine, which is mainly expressed in the immunity‐related organs and is involved in various diseases including cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, lung diseases, viral infectious diseases and autoimmune diseases.AimThis review aims to detail the biological function,

IL-38 orchestrates proliferation and differentiation in human keratinocytes. [PDF]
AbstractInterleukin (IL)‐38 is a member of the IL‐1 cytokine family with reported anti‐inflammatory activity. The highest constitutive IL‐38 expression is detected in the skin, where it is mainly produced by differentiating keratinocytes. However, little data are available regarding its biological functions.

IL-38 attenuates myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury by inhibiting macrophage inflammation. [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundReperfusion therapy is the most effective approach to resolve coronary occlusion, but myocardial injury caused by excessive inflammation during myocardial ischemia–reperfusion will also pose a new threat to health. Our prior study revealed the expression pattern of interleukin‐38 (IL‐38) in the peripheral blood serum of patients with ...

Effects of IL-38 on Macrophages and Myocardial Ischemic Injury. [PDF]
Macrophages play an important role in clearing necrotic myocardial tissues, myocardial ischemia–reperfusion injury, and ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction. M1 macrophages not only participate in the inflammatory response in myocardial tissues after infarction, which causes heart damage, but also exert a protective effect on the heart ...

Oxidation-sensitive cysteines drive IL-38 amyloid formation
AbstractCytokines of the interleukin (IL)-1 family are widely expressed in epithelial surfaces, including the epidermis, where they play a key role in the maintenance of barrier integrity and host defense. A recent report associated the IL-1 family member IL-33 with stress granules (SGs) in epithelial cells.

Multifaceted roles of IL-38 in inflammation and cancer
Interleukin (IL)-38 is the least well-understood cytokine of the IL-1 family. Since its discovery twenty years ago, numerous studies have linked IL-38 to diverse pathologies, especially in the context of autoimmune and inflammatory processes, while its role in cancer has been less explored.

Cell Intrinsic IL-38 Affects B Cell Differentiation and Antibody Production. [PDF]
IL-38 is an IL-1 family receptor antagonist with an emerging role in chronic inflammatory diseases. IL-38 expression has been mainly observed not only in epithelia, but also in cells of the immune system, including macrophages and B cells. Given the association of both IL-38 and B cells with chronic inflammation, we explored if IL-38 affects B cell ...
