Descriptions:Haptoglobin is a glycoprotein, which is synthesized in the liver and circulates in the blood. Haptoglobin is usually produced by liver cells, but it is also produced by other tissues, such as skin, lung and kidney. It is a positive acute phase protein, which binds to free hemoglobin and removes it from circulation to prevent kidney injury and iron loss after hemolysis. Decreased levels can be seen in hemolysis and impaired liver function. A high level is a sign of acute or chronic inflammation. Hemoglobin deficiency or hypohaptoglobinemia is caused by mutation of haptoglobin gene and/or its regulatory region. Haptoglobin is also related to diabetic nephropathy, the incidence of coronary artery disease in type 1 diabetes, Crohn's disease, inflammatory disease behavior, susceptibility to primary sclerosing cholangitis, idiopathic Parkinson's disease and the reduction of the incidence of plasmodium falciparum malaria.

Descriptions:Interleukin 1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) is a 17.26 kDa member of IL-1 family with 153 amino acid residues. IL-1RA is expressed by peripheral blood cells, lungs, spleen, liver and is secreted from monocytes, macrophages, neutrophils, and other cells. Inhibits the activity of interleukin-1 by binding to receptor IL1R1. IL-1RA can modulate a variety of interleukin-1 related immune and inflammatory responses, particularly in the acute phase of infection and inflammation.

Descriptions:C-X-C motif chemokine 3 (CXCL3) also named Growth-regulated oncogene gamma (GROγ), which is a chemokine of the intercrine alpha family. CXCL3 is a 8 kDa protein containing 73 amino acid residues. During inflammation, CXCL3 is activated by the TNF and IL-1 which mediates the monocytes migration and adhesion by targeting the CXCR2. CXCL3 activates the JNK activity which induce the cell differentiation.

Descriptions:Interleukin 12 (IL-12) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine with a molecular weight of 70 kDa composed of two subunits, IL-12 p35 (35 kDa) and IL-12 p40 (40 kDa). IL-12 p40 is induced in excess over the other subunits of IL-12 and IL-23 and can exist in a monomeric or homodimeric form.

Descriptions:Fibroblast Growth Factors-19 (FGF-19) is a 24 kDa member of the fibroblast Growth Factors with 216 amino acid residues. FGF-19 is mainly secreted from cholangiocytes, ductal cells. FGF-19 involved cell proliferation, glucose and bile acid metabolism via FGFR4 pathway.

Descriptions:Human CD40L (CD154) is one member of TNF family which is expressed on T cells. It binds the CD40, which is on the antigen-presenting cells (ex: B cells, macrophages and monocytes) Human CD40L is a 21.6 kDa cytokine with 103 amino acid residues which is a transmembrane glycoprotein. Human CD40L plays an important role in the adaptive immune system which induces the B cell maturation and activation.

Descriptions:Interleukin 36 gamma (IL-36 gamma) is a 17.65 kDa cytokine with 159 amino acid residues. IL-36 gamma is a member of the IL-1 family and is mainly expressed in keratinocytes, bronchial epithelial cells, macrophages, and monocyte. This cytokine responds to multiple pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and participates in the inflammatory response. In addition, it also induces the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines like IL-12, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-23.

Descriptions:Interleukin-38 (IL-38) is a member of the interleukin-1 cytokine family. IL-38 is a ligand for soluble IL-1 receptor type I (IL-1RI). IL-38 could block the IL-36 pathway by inhibiting the IL-36 cytokine binding to their receptor. This process shows that IL-38 has anti-inflammatory properties. IL-38 is expressed in the immune organs, specifically in the skin and the tonsil, indispensable for B cell proliferation.

Descriptions:C-X-C motif chemokine 13 (CXCL13) also named B lymphocyte chemoattractant (BLC), which is a chemokine of the intercrine alpha family. CXCL13 is a 7.9kDa protein containing 72 amino acid residues. CXCL13 is a chemotaxis for B lymphocyte. CXCL13 induces the cell proliferation though the AKT signal pathway which plays a key role intestinal cancer model. CXCL13 /CXCR5 axis is highly existed in gut, spleen and lymph nodes.
