Function | Cytokine with immunoregulatory activity. May promote the transition between innate and adaptive immunity. Induces the production of IgG(1) and IgG(3) in B-cells (By similarity). May play a role in proliferation and maturation of natural killer (NK) cells in synergy with IL15. May regulate proliferation of mature B- and T-cells in response to activating stimuli. In synergy with IL15 and IL18 stimulates interferon gamma production in T-cells and NK cells. During T-cell mediated immune response may inhibit dendritic cells (DC) activation and maturation. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11081504, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15178704}. |
Subcellular Location | Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11081504}. |
Tissue Specificity | Expressed in activated CD4-positive T-cells but not in CD8-positive T-cells, B-cells, or monocytes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11081504}. |
Top Pathways | Cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, Jak-STAT signaling pathway, Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) |
