Elevated serum Interleukin-39 in Myasthenia gravis: a possible biomarker
Background Interleukin-39 (IL-39) is a cytokine implicated in immune regulation and autoimmune diseases, but its role in myasthenia gravis (MG) is unknown. This study aimed to investigate serum IL-39 levels in MG patients. Methods Serum IL-39 levels were

Interleukin-37 and interleukin-39 as novel immunometabolic biomarkers in metabolic syndrome: A cross-sectional study. [PDF]
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is characterized by abdominal obesity, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and insulin resistance, all driven by chronic low-grade inflammation. This study aimed to evaluate serum interleukin-37 (IL-37) and interleukin-39 (IL-39) levels as potential immunometabolic biomarkers in MetS.

A Role of Serum Interleukin-39 and Association with Small and Non-Small Cell Carcinoma in Lung Cancer Patients. [PDF]
Lung cancer is the second most common malignancy globally and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Interleukin-39 (IL-39), a member of the IL-12 family secreted by B cells, acts as a pro-inflammatory cytokine and induces IL-23p19 expression in endothelial cells. Recent findings suggest reduced IL-39 expression in autoimmune thyroid disorders and

IL-12 (p35/p40) and IL-23 (p19/p40) signal through IL-12R (IL-12Rβ2/β1) and IL-23R (IL-23Rα/IL-12Rβ1), respectively, which can promote pathogenic T lymphocyte activation, differentiation, and function in graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). With the use of murine models of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), we found that IL-12Rβ1 on ...
