Human ADMC-Derived Adipocyte Thermogenic Capacity Is Regulated by IL-4 Receptor [PDF]

open access: yesStem Cells International, 2017
Type two innate immune system is anti-inflammatory and may play an important role as the means whereby “browning” is induced in subcutaneous adipocytes. It was shown that IL-4 may influence the fate of adipose cell precursors by promoting differentiation

Regulation of IL-4 receptor signaling by STUB1 in lung inflammation. [PDF]

open access: yesAm J Respir Crit Care Med, 2014
Abstract Rationale IL-4Rα, the common receptor component for IL-4 and IL-13, plays a critical role in IL-4– and IL-13–mediated signaling pathways that regulate airway inflammation and remodeling.

IL-4 and IL-4 receptor expression is dispensable for the development and function of natural killer T cells.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
CD4 T cells acquire functional properties including cytokine production upon antigenic stimulation through the T cell receptor (TCR) and differentiate into T helper (Th) cells. Th1 cells produce interferon (IFN)-γ and Th2 cells produce interleukin (IL)-4.

Interleukins 4 and 13 in Asthma: Key Pathophysiologic Cytokines and Druggable Molecular Targets

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Interleukins (IL)-4 and -13 play a pivotal role in the pathobiology of type-2 asthma. Indeed, IL-4 is crucially involved in Th2 cell differentiation, immunoglobulin (Ig) class switching and eosinophil trafficking.

In Situ Identification of Both IL-4 and IL-10 Cytokine–Receptor Interactions during Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesCells, 2023
Cytokines secreted by individual immune cells regulate tissue regeneration and allow communication between various cell types. Cytokines bind to cognate receptors and trigger the healing process.

Involvement of IL-4, IL-13 and Their Receptors in Pancreatic Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13 are known as pleiotropic Th2 cytokines with a wide range of biological properties and functions especially in immune responses. In addition, increasing activities have also been determined in oncogenesis and tumor progression of several malignancies.

V75R576 IL-4 Receptor α Is Associated with Allergic Asthma and Enhanced IL-4 Receptor Function [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2002
Abstract Asthma is a complex polygenic disease. Many studies have implicated the importance of IL-4Rα in the development of allergic inflammation and its gene has been implicated in the genetics of asthma and atopy. In this study, we examined the functional consequences of two of the human IL-4Rα allelic variants that have been found to ...

Enhancement of human IL-4 activity by soluble IL-4 receptorsin vitro [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, 1999
The recombinant form of the extracellular domain of the IL-4 receptor (sIL-4R) is a potential candidate to neutralize IL-4; however, murine sIL-4R displayed both antagonistic and agonistic activity in vivo. Here we show that human recombinant sIL-4R induced the formation of complexed IL-4 in supernatants of activated T cells in a dose-dependent manner ...

Transplacental passage of interleukins 4 and 13? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
The mechanisms by which prenatal events affect development of adult disease are incompletely characterized. Based on findings in a murine model of maternal transmission of asthma risk, we sought to test the role of the pro-asthmatic cytokines interleukin
