- Background
- Interleukin 37 (IL-37), also known as IL-1 family member 7 (IL-1F7), is an anti-inflammatory cytokine. Interleukines are cytokines that make an important part of immune signaling. It belongs to the interleukin-1 family. This protein is in humans encoded by the IL37 gene located on the chromosome 2. The mechanism of IL-37 functions is still to be elucidated. IL-37 possesses not only anti-inflmammatory effects but it is also important in antimicrobial response or antitumor immunity. The IL-37 acts intracellulary and extracellulary.

- Tissue Specificity
- Expressed in brain, lung, kidney, spleen and testis. Found also in the inner and outer synaptic layers, and the nerve fiber layer in adult and fetal retinas. Found in the supporting cells, outer sulcus cells and spiral ganglion of fetal cochlea. Expressed in cytotoxic tumor-derived T- and NK-cell lines as well as biopsies of nasal NK/T-cell lymphomas. Not detected in normal or in vitro activated peripheral blood cells, CD4 or CD8 lymphocytes or NK cells. Isoform 3 is expressed in brain, heart, cerebellum and kidney. CD1 isoforms, such as isoform 1, have a limited pattern of expression and is detected in testis, retina and cochlea. CD2 isoforms, such as isoforms 4 and 5, are expressed in heart, kidney, thymus, spleen, testis, retina and cochlea. CD3 isoforms, such as isoform 6, are widely expressed.
