Interleukin-4 and interleukin-4 receptor polymorphisms in minimal change nephropathy
Clinical Science, 1999Minimal change nephropathy (MCN) is an important cause of nephrotic syndrome, especially in children, that is strongly associated with atopy and IgE production. The immunogenetics of MCN are poorly understood. Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is the critical cytokine involved in the development of atopy.

Interleukin-4 and interleukin-4 receptor polymorphisms and colorectal cancer risk
European Journal of Cancer, 2007Interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-4 receptor (IL-4R) modulate inflammation and are associated with the colorectal adenoma-carcinoma progression and the metastatic capacity. IL-4 also causes a dose-dependent reduction of proliferation in colorectal cancer cells.

Interleukin 4, interleukin 4 receptor‐α and interleukin 10 gene polymorphisms in Chagas disease
Parasite Immunology, 2011SummaryIn this study, we investigated the association between single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the interleukin‐4 (IL4), interleukin‐4 receptor‐α (IL4RA) and interleukin‐10 (IL10) genes with the development of chagasic heart disease. This study included 260 patients from Colombia who were serologically positive for Trypanosoma cruzi antigens ...

The aim of this study was to determine whether the functional interleukin-4 (IL-4) -590 C/T, IL-4 receptor (IL-4R) 1902 G/A, IL-18 -607 C/A, and -137 G/C polymorphisms polymorphisms confer susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Meta-analysis was conducted on the associations between these IL-4, IL-4R, and IL-18 polymorphisms and RA.A total of 12 ...

Interleukin-4 is a neutrophil activator
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1989We investigated the ability of the lymphokine, interleukin-4 (IL-4), to function as a neutrophil (PMN) activator. IL-4 enhanced PMN-mediated killing of opsonized bacteria (by up to 91.6% at 3 units of IL-4; p less than 0.05). IL-4 was a weak secondary granule secretagogue and did not by itself generate a respiratory burst. However, IL-4 did increase in
