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-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: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:C-X-C motif chemokine 11 (CXCL11) also named Interferon-gamma-inducible protein 9 (IP-9), which is a chemokine of the intercrine alpha family. CXCL11 is a 8.8 kDa protein containing 79 amino acid residues. To CXCR3, CXCL11 has higher affinity than CXCL10 and CXCL9 which plays a role in immune activation. CXCL11 induces the activation of T cells which is also a chemotaxis for T cells. CXCL11 is produced in response for IFN Family.

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.

Descriptions:Interleukin 19 (IL-19) predicts a molecular mass of 35.8 kDa, is a type of anti-inflammatory cytokine. It promotes the Th2 T-cell response which supports an anti-inflammatory lymphocyte phenotype, dampens the Th1 T-cell response and IFNγ secretion, increases IL-10 expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, and inhibits the production of IgG from B cells.

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 17B (IL-17B) predicts a molecular mass of 20.4 kDa, is expressed in several peripheral tissues and immune tissues. In contrast to the high level of IL-6 secretion stimulated by IL-17A, IL-17B failed to induce IL-6 secretion in fibroblasts; however, it significantly enhanced the TNF-α-induced production of G-CSF and IL-6 in the fibroblasts.
