- Background
- Interleukin-17 receptor (IL-17R) ; also known as Interleukin-17 receptor A (IL-17RA) and CD217 antigen (CD217) ; is a cytokine receptor which binds interleukin 17. IL-17R/IL-17RA (CD217) is a proinflammatory cytokine secreted by activated T-lymphocytes. It is a potent inducer of the maturation of CD34-positive hematopoietic precursors into neutrophils. IL-17R/IL-17RA (CD217) is a ubiquitous type I membrane glycoprotein that binds with low affinity to interleukin 17A. Interleukin 17A and its receptor IL-17RA play a pathogenic role in many inflammatory and autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. Like other cytokine receptors; this receptor likely has a multimeric structure. Defects in IL-17R/IL-17RA (CD217) are the cause of familial candidiasis type 5 (CANDF5) . CANDF5 is a rare disorder with altered immune responses and impaired clearance of fungal infections; selective against Candida. It is characterized by persistent and/or recurrent infections of the skin; nails and mucous membranes caused by organisms of the genus Candida; mainly Candida albicans.

- Bioactivity
- 1. Immobilized recombinant human IL17A at 2 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind biotinylated human IL17RA with a linear range of 1. 28-32 ng/ml. 2. Measured by its ability to inhibit IL-17-induced IL-6 secretion by HFF human foreskin fibroblast cells. The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.03-0.12 μg/mL.
