Secondary Accession Numbers Not Available
Name Interleukin-13
Description Not Available
Synonyms Not Available
Gene Name IL13
Protein Type Receptor
Biological Properties
General Function interleukin-13 receptor binding
Specific Function Cytokine (PubMed:8096327, PubMed:8097324). Inhibits inflammatory cytokine production (PubMed:8096327). Synergizes with IL2 in regulating interferon-gamma synthesis (PubMed:8096327). May be critical in regulating inflammatory and immune responses (PubMed:8096327, PubMed:8097324). Positively regulates IL31RA expression in macrophages (By similarity).
