IL-12 family members IL-12, IL-23, IL-27 and IL-35 are heterodimeric cytokines that are important players in autoimmunity. Subunits are shared among the IL-12 family and these cytokines, excluding IL-35, are mainly produced by antigen presenting cells. In this review we will initially describe the structure, regulation and functional relationship among IL-12 family members. We will also discuss how these cytokines contributed to a paradigm shift in T cell biology and orchestrate immune mediated inflammation. We further highlight that the cross-regulation between these factors is linked to adaptive immunity. Our discussion will be focused on each family member’s impact on rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We finally discuss how results from the bench can assist us in designing future therapeutic approaches for RA. However, the findings regarding the IL-12 family members are a relatively new area of research and the data is mostly at the preclinical stage therefore, more human data is required to determine whether these cytokines may be valid therapeutic targets in RA.
