Interleukin 21: a cytokine/cytokine receptor system that has come of age [PDF]
AbstractInterleukin-21 (IL-21) and its receptor represent the sixth cytokine system whose actions were recognized to require the common cytokine receptor γ chain. IL-21 is produced by activated CD4+ T cells, natural killer T cells, and follicular T helper cells and has actions on a range of lymphohematopoietic lineages.

Interleukin 21 Receptor/Ligand Interaction Is Linked to Disease Progression in Pancreatic Cancer [PDF]
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) displays a marked fibro-inflammatory microenvironment in which infiltrated immune cells fail to eliminate the tumor cells and often—rather paradoxically—promote tumor progression. Of special interest are tumor-promoting T cells that assume a Th17-like phenotype because their presence in PDAC tissue is associated ...

Expression of functional interleukin‐21 receptor on adult T‐cell leukaemia cells [PDF]
SummaryAdult T‐cell leukaemia (ATL) is caused by human T‐cell leukaemia virus type I (HTLV‐I). It has been suggested that cytokines play a role in the development and in the neoplastic cell growth of ATL. However, the precise mechanism involved in this process still remains unclear.

Characterization of signalling cross-talk between the EP2 and FP receptors in endometrial epithelial cells [PDF]
Uterine fibroids are benign tumors that arise from the smooth-muscle uterine cells (myometrium) and are the most common uterine disorder occurring in as many as 30% of women over 35 years of age. Despite their frequent occurrence, the etiology of uterine
