Descriptions:BAFF also known as BLYS, TALL-1 and TNFSF13B, which belongs to tumor necrosis factor family. BAFF is a 31.2 kDa type II transmembrane protein containing 285 residues that predominantly produced by myeloid cells, furthermore mouse BAFF shares 72% sequence identity with human BAFF. BAFF has been demonstrated to activate the survival of B cells and the B cell response by binding to BAFFR/BR3. Additionally, BAFF also takes part in regulating B and T cell function via forming two ligands-two receptors pathway through sharing TNFRSF13B/TACI and TNFRSF17/BCMA receptors with APRIL.

Descriptions:Interleukin 16 (IL-16) predicts a molecular mass of 13.5 kDa, encoded by this gene is a pleiotropic cytokine that functions as a chemoattractant, a modulator of T cell activation, and an inhibitor of HIV replication, and signaling process of this cytokine is mediated by CD4.

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: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.
