Novel Functions of IL-27 in Innate Immunity: Characterization of IL-27-induced Inflammatory Responses in Human Monocytes and Impact of HIV Infection on IL-27 Expression and Function
Interleukins, cytokines secreted by leukocytes, are predominant messengers modulating immune responses. Interleukin-27 (IL-27), a key immunomodulatory cytokine, functions to induce both pro- and anti-inflammatory effects in various immune cells. IL-27 is a heterodimeric cytokine, composed of IL-27p2...
