Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * IL-12A is a cytokine that belongs to the interleukin-12 family of cytokines. * It is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that promotes the differentiation and activation of immune cells, including T cells and B cells. * It is produced by various cell types, including epithelial cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, and lymphocytes. **Pathways and functions:** * IL-12A primarily acts through the IL-12 receptor, which is expressed on various immune cells. * It promotes the activation of T cells, promoting the differentiation of naive CD4+ T cells into effector T cells, such as Th1, Th2, Th17, and Th22 cells. * It also promotes the differentiation of naive B cells into plasma cells, which can produce antibodies. * IL-12A also has anti-inflammatory effects, promoting the suppression of inflammatory responses and maintaining immune tolerance. **Clinical significance:** * IL-12A plays a crucial role in maintaining immune homeostasis in the gut. * Dysregulation of IL-12A signaling has been implicated in various inflammatory diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), colorectal cancer, and obesity. * Inhibition of IL-12A signaling has shown therapeutic potential in preclinical models of inflammatory diseases. **Additional notes:** * IL-12A is a pleiotropic cytokine with both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory effects. * It is produced in response to various stimuli, including infection, injury, and inflammation. * It is a key cytokine in shaping the immune response against extracellular bacteria and parasites.
