Descriptions:Interleukin-1 alpha (IL1 alpha or IL1α) is a member of the interleukin-1 cytokine family, found constitutively present in epithelial layers of the entire gastrointestinal tract, lung, liver, kidney, endothelial cells, and astrocytes. The synthesized IL-1 alpha is a 31 kDa inactive precursor and can be cleaved by intracellular caspase-1 or extracellular proteases to generate the bioactive 17 kDa form and the 16 kDa N-terminal cleavage product. Both precursor and mature IL-1 alpha protein bind to the IL-1 receptor (IL-1R), initiating a cascade of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines production such as IL-6, IL-8, and TNF, in response to viral and bacterial pathogens conditions. IL-1 alpha plays a central role in immune-surveillance mechanisms, stimulating macrophages, neutrophils, and CD8+ T cells activity.

Descriptions:Interleukin 25 (IL-25) is a cytokine with proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory effects, it predicts a molecular mass of 16.7 kDa. It can induce NF-κB activation, and stimulate the production of IL-8, which is the major chemotactic substance of neutrophils.

Descriptions:Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) is a 18.67 kDa protein containing 207 amino acid which secreted by monocytes, macrophages, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells, regulates cell growth, maturation, and development of myeloid cells. G-CSF is a member of the CSF family of glycoproteins, and makes the bone marrow produce more white blood cells so it can reduce the risk of infection after some types of cancer treatment. G-CSF is also an established useful clinical agent for increasing neutrophilic granulocytes levels. Mouse G-CSF shares 73% sequence homology with human G-CSF.

Descriptions:Interleukin 30 (IL-30) forms one chain of the heterodimeric cytokine called interleukin 27 (IL-27), thus it is also called IL27 p28, it predicts a molecular mass of 24.9 kDa. IL-30, the p28 subunit that forms IL-27 together with EBI3 and is also known as IL-27 p28 or IL-27A, has been considered a surrogate to represent IL-27. It was initially thought to be an IL-12-like cytokine promoting Th1 immunity because of its ability to induce T-bet and IL-12Rβ2 expression through STAT1 activation during Th1 differentiation.

Descriptions:FGF16 is preferentially expressed in the heart after birth, suggesting its regulation is associated with tissue-specific chromatin remodeling and DNA-protein interactions. Mutation of the MEF2 site resulted in a blunting of FGF16 promoter activity in transfected neonatal rat cardiac myocytes, that chromatin remodeling and MEF2 binding in the FGF16 promoter contribute to expression in the postnatal heart.

Descriptions:Heparin Binding Growth Factors (HDGF) is a 27.6 kDa hepatoma-derived Growth Factors with 246 amino acid residues. HDGF is mainly expressed from mitochondria and proteasome. Functionally, it is a potent mitogen, stimulating the growth of vascular smooth muscle cells, hepatoma cells and endothelial cells, acting as a transcriptional repressor. HDGF is expressed in a variety of cancers.

Descriptions:Fibroblast Growth Factors-20 (FGF-20) is a 23.5 kDa member of the fibroblast Growth Factors with 211 amino acid residues. FGF-20 is mainly expressed from microglial cells. FGF-20 can regulate central nervous development and function, regulate the survival of dopaminergic neurons via FGF/FGFR-dependent signaling pathway.
