A fusion protein of interleukin-11 and soluble interleukin-11 receptor acts as a superagonist on cells expressing gp130.
Interleukin-11 is a hematopoietic cytokine that signals via the signal transducer gp130. Although gp130 is ubiquitously expressed, interleukine-11 responsiveness is restricted to cells that express the interleukine-11 receptor alpha-subunit. The interleukine-11 receptor alpha-subunit can be functionally replaced by its soluble form indicating that the transmembrane and cytoplasmic parts are not...
متن کاملMediation of interleukin-11-dependent biological responses by a soluble form of the interleukin-11 receptor.
Interleukin-11 (IL-11) is a polyfunctional cytokine whose biological actions require a specific IL-11 receptor (IL-11R) and the transmembrane transducer gp130. Here we report the production of a soluble form of the murine IL-11R and demonstrate that it interacts with IL-11 ligand with high affinity. The affinity of IL-11 alone for gp130 is below the level of detection, but a complex of IL-11 an...
متن کاملRecombinant soluble interleukin-11 (IL-11) receptor alpha-chain can act as an IL-11 antagonist.
We have expressed a soluble N-glycosylated form of the murine interleukin-11 (IL-11) receptor alpha-chain (sIL-11R) and examined signaling in cells expressing the gp130 molecule. In the presence of gp130 but not the transmembrane IL-11R, the sIL-11R mediated IL-11-dependent differentiation of M1 leukemic cells and proliferation in Ba/F3 cells. Early intracellular events stimulated by the sIL-11...
متن کاملGeneration of Soluble Interleukin-11 and Interleukin-6 Receptors: A Crucial Function for Proteases during Inflammation
The cytokines interleukin-11 (IL-11) and IL-6 are important proteins with well-defined pro- and anti-inflammatory functions. They activate intracellular signaling cascades through a homodimer of the ubiquitously expressed signal-transducing β-receptor glycoprotein 130 (gp130). Specificity is gained through the cell- and tissue-specific expression of the nonsignaling IL-11 and IL-6 α-receptors (...
متن کاملActivation of the signal transducer gp130 by interleukin-11 and interleukin-6 is mediated by similar molecular interactions.
The transmembrane glycoprotein gp130 is involved in many cytokine-mediated cellular responses and acts therein as the signal transducing receptor subunit. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-11 (IL-11), in complex with their specific alpha-receptors, homodimerize gp130 and, as a consequence, activate the Janus kinase (Jak)/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) signalling path...
