Interleukin-4-Enhanced Oligodendrocyte Differentiation Depends on Extracellular Zinc Uptake via ZIP11

open access: yesCells
Differentiation of oligodendrocytes and myelination are enhanced by interleukin-4, an anti-inflammatory cytokine secreted from immune cells or injured neurons, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ serves as a central effector.

The role of the novel Th17 cytokine IL-26 in intestinal inflammation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background and aims: Interleukin 26 (IL-26), a novel IL-10-like cytokine without a murine homologue, is expressed in T helper 1 (Th1) and Th17 cells. Currently, its function in human disease is completely unknown. The aim of this study was to analyse its

Induction of IL 2 receptor expression and cytotoxicity of thymocytes by stimulation with TCF1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
We investigated the role of T cell cytotoxicity inducing factor 1 (TCF1) in the induction of a cytotoxic T cell response. We found that help-deficient thymocyte cultures supplied with saturating amounts of purified IL 2 did not develop CTL in a 5-day ...

An IL-4/21 Inverted Cytokine Receptor Improving CAR-T Cell Potency in Immunosuppressive Solid-Tumor Microenvironment

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Incorporation of inverted cytokine receptor (ICR) such as interleukin (IL)-4 vs. IL-7 (4/7) ICR is one strategy to improve the antitumor activities of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) modified T (CAR-T) cells facing immunosuppressive cytokines.
