Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Structure and Function:** IL37 is a secreted protein that belongs to the IL-1 family. It is composed of 153 amino acids and shares structural homology with other IL-1 family members. 2. **Expression and Localization:** IL37 is expressed in various cell types, including hematopoietic stem cells, endothelial cells, megakaryocytes, enterocytes, and GABAergic interneurons. Its expression is regulated by transcription factors, such as NF-κB and IRF3. 3. **Signaling Pathways:** IL37 activates various signaling pathways, including the IL-1 receptor signaling pathway, the NF-κB pathway, and the MAPK pathway. These pathways regulate the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF-α and IL-6. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Negative Regulation of Inflammation:** IL37 acts as a negative regulator of inflammatory responses by inhibiting the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF-α and IL-6. This is achieved through the activation of the IL-1 receptor signaling pathway and the NF-κB pathway. 2. **Regulation of Immune Cell Proliferation:** IL37 regulates the proliferation and differentiation of immune cells, such as T cells and dendritic cells, by modulating the expression of cytokines and chemokines. 3. **Maintenance of Tissue Homeostasis:** IL37 is involved in maintaining tissue homeostasis by regulating the expression of genes involved in cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Autoimmune Diseases:** Dysregulation of IL37 has been implicated in various autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and multiple sclerosis. Elevated levels of IL37 have been found in patients with these diseases, suggesting its role as a negative regulator of inflammation. 2. **Infectious Diseases:** IL37 has been shown to regulate the host response to infections, such as bacterial and viral infections. Its dysregulation has been implicated in the development of sepsis and other infectious diseases. 3. **Cancer:** IL37 has been implicated in cancer progression and metastasis. Its dysregulation has been found in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, and colon cancer. 4. **Neurological Disorders:** IL37 has been implicated in various neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis. Its dysregulation has been found in these diseases, suggesting its role in maintaining neural tissue homeostasis. In conclusion, IL37 plays a crucial role in regulating immune responses and maintaining tissue homeostasis. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various immune-related disorders, including autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases, and cancer. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms of IL37 and its clinical significance.
