Interleukin-13 in asthma

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2003
Some time ago, the Th2 cytokine, interleukin (IL)-13, was identified as a critical regulator of the allergic response. Initial studies in animal models of disease provided compelling evidence that IL-13, independent from other Th2 cytokines, was necessary and sufficient to induce all features of allergic asthma.

Measurement of Interleukin‐13

Current Protocols in Immunology, 2001
AbstractThis unit describes two protocols that can be used to quantitate interleukin‐13 (IL‐13). The enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has the advantage of being highly specific for human IL‐13 and does not recognize other cytokines present in the sample.

[Interleukin 13 and interleukin 13 receptor involvement in systemic sclerosis].

La Revue de medecine interne, 2007
Interleukin 13 is an immunoregulatory cytokine predominantly secreted by activated Th2 cells. It has similar functions with interleukin 4 and they share a common receptor. However, unlike interleukin 4, l'interleukin 13 does not appear to be important in the initial differentiation of CD4 T into Th2-type cells, but rather appears to be necessary in the

Immunoregulatory Roles of Interleukin-13 in Cattle

Journal of Interferon & Cytokine Research, 1999
Interleukin-13 (IL-13) is produced predominantly by helper T lymphocytes of the Th2 phenotype and mediates its effects on several immune cells, including B lymphocytes and macrophages, stimulating their proliferation, differentiation, and effector functions.

Interleukin-13 in asthma pathogenesis

Current Allergy and Asthma Reports, 2004
Summary:  Bronchial asthma is a complex disorder that is thought to arise as a result of aberrant T‐lymphocyte responses to noninfectious environmental antigens. In particular, the symptoms of asthma are closely associated with the presence of activated T‐helper 2 cell (Th2) cytokine‐producing cells [interleukin (IL)‐4, IL‐5, IL‐9, and IL‐13] in the ...

Transgenic Modeling of Interleukin-13 in the Lung

Chest, 2003
Interleukin (IL)-13 is a key cytokine in asthma pathogenesis. We used constitutive and inducible overexpression transgenic mice to characterize the mechanisms by which IL-13 causes phenotypic alterations in the lung. These studies demonstrated that chemokine receptor-2, transforming growth factor-beta(1), and IL-11 play an important role in the ...

Role of Interleukin-13 in Asthma

Current Allergy and Asthma Reports, 2013
Interleukin-13 is a pleiotropic TH2 cytokine that has been shown to be central to the pathogenesis of asthma. Some of the most prominent of the effects of IL-13 include increases in goblet cell differentiation, activation of fibroblasts, elevation of bronchial hyperresponsiveness, and switching of B cell antibody production from IgM to IgE.

SUMF2 interacts with interleukin‐13 and inhibits interleukin‐13 secretion in bronchial smooth muscle cells

Journal of Cellular Biochemistry, 2009
AbstractIL‐13 is a central mediator of allergic inflammation and secreted by Th2 and bronchial smooth muscle cells (BSMC). However, little is known about the regulation of IL‐13 secretion. To address it, a cDNA library of BSMC was screened for the proteins interacted with IL‐13 by yeast two‐hybridization.
