Antigen Details
- Structure
- "Four-helix bundle" protein that folds similarly to IL-6. Canonical full length human IL-11 contains 199 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight of 21.4 kD. Mouse IL-11 also contains 199 amino acids and has a predicted molecular weight of 21.5 kD.
- Distribution
- IL-11 can be secreted by various cell types such as epithelial, endothelial, keratinocytes, stromal, neuronal, fibroblasts, osteoclasts, and bone marrow stromal cells.
- Function
- IL-11, a multifunctional cytokine, plays an important role in processes such as hemopoiesis, thrombopoiesis, megakaryocytopoiesis, and bone resorption. It regulates macrophage differentiation and confers mucosal protection after chemotherapy and radiation therapy. IL-11 expression can also be up-regulated by oncogenic Ras or respiratory virus infections. IL-11 and IL-11Rα are induced by IL-13.
- Interaction
- Hematopoietic cells, hepatocytes, adipocytes, neurons, osteoblasts, fibroblasts, and gastrointestinal epithelial cells.
- Ligand/Receptor
- Membrane bound or soluble IL-11Rα heterodimer with gp130β.
