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：Galectin-8 (Gal-8) is a lectin family member and is one of the tandem repeat-type galectins containing two carbohydrate recognition domains (CRD) connected by a linker region in a single peptide chain. The CRD is responsible for β-galactoside binding, and the binding partners for galectin-8 have been identified, including CD44 and a subset of integrins. Galectin-8 and integrins form complexes, subsequently leading to phosphorylation of paxillin and focal adhesion kinase (FAK), which activates signal pathways including MAPK-ERK and PI3K-AKT pathways. Galectin-8 is constitutively presented in the Liver, kidney, cardiac muscle, lung, and brain. Galectin-8 serves as an immunosuppressive protective role against autoimmune CNS inflammation, regulating the balance of Th17 and Th1 polarization.

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.

Descriptions：Interleukin 36 alpha (IL-36 alpha) is a 17.76 kDa cytokine with 160 amino acid residues. IL-36 alpha is an IL-1 family member, which binds to the Interleukin-1 receptor and is expressed in the lung, stomach, and placenta. IL-36 alpha is critical in inflammatory responses and stimulates the production of proinflammatory cytokines, such as IL-12, IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α. It also induces the generation of IFNγ, IL-4, and IL-17 in CD4+ T cells.

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：Interleukin 36 receptor antagonist (IL-36RA) is a 16.97 kDa member of IL-1 family with 155 amino acid residues. IL-1RA is expressed by lymphoid tissue, skin and secreted to blood. IL-36Ra functions as a receptor antagonist that inhibits the activation of IL-36R signaling and suppresses pro-inflammatory signaling.

Descriptions：Interleukin 27 EBI3 (IL-27 EI3) predicts a molecular mass of 23.4 kDa. IL-27 is a heterodimeric cytokine that is encoded by Epstein-Barr virus-induced gene 3 (EBI3) and IL-27p28. It is expressed by antigen presenting cells and interacts with a specific cell-surface receptor complex known as IL-27 receptor (IL-27R).
Applications：His tag

Descriptions：Bone Morphogenetic Protein-13 (BMP-13), known as Growth differentiation factor 6 (GDF6), is an extracellular multifunctional cytokine that is also a member of the TGFβ family. BMP-13 can bind with the TGFβ receptor and induce SMAD protein signal transduction. BMP-13 is a regulatory protein that can affect the growth and differentiation of developing embryos. Moreover, it plays a role in regulating the patterning of the ectoderm and controlling eye development.
Applications：His tag

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.
