| Introduction | The IL-27 Receptor complex includes WSX-1 and gp130. IL-27R (WSX-1) is 65-70 kDa protein and is highly expressed in lymphoid tissues such as spleen, lymph nodes and peripheral blood leukocytes including CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, monocytes, DCs and NK cells. IL-27R activation includes STAT1, STAT3, STAT4 and STAT5, leading to differing pathway dependent effector activities. Like the IL12/IL-12R complex, the IL-27/IL-27R complex also has Th1 enhancing activity especially enhancement of IFNg production by naive T cells and NK cells. IL-27R mediates downregulation of Th2 activity by findings that IL-27R deficiencies mitigate inflammatory pathology in helminthic infections in mice. The possibility of utilizing IL-27R as a target for autoimmune inflammatory diseases, especially of mucosal surfaces as in human IBD, is under investigation, measured by Th2 type cytokines and bolstered through Th2. |
