Subject: IL12 Family

IL 12 family of cytokines consists of 4 heterodimeric protein members including IL 12, IL 23, IL 27 and IL 35. IL 12 family members are the only heterodimeric cytokine with several unique and distinctive features. IL 12 family members have similar structure with two protein subunits including one ¦Á chain (p19, p28 or p35) and one ¦Â chain (p40 or Ebi3). The signaling of IL 12 family is mediated by members of the Janus kinase-signal transducers and activators of transcription (JAK-STAT) family. IL 12 family members are involved in driving T-helper cell development and are related to granulomatous inflammatory diseases, for instance, tuberculosis and Crohn¡¯s disease.
