白细胞介素-35(IL-35)是IL-12家族的最新成员,由IL-12 p35亚基和IL-27 β亚基Epstein巴尔病毒诱导的3(EBI 3)组成。自发现以来,IL-35已显示出与IL-12家族的其他成员不同的免疫抑制活性。IL-35的独特之处还在于它主要由调节性T细胞(T-CTL)而不是抗原呈递细胞(APC)表达。IL-35可以直接抑制效应T细胞的增殖和功能,并抑制Th 17细胞的分化。它还能够通过产生产生IL-35的诱导型T细胞(iTr 35)的有效群体来扩大调节反应以促进对感染的耐受性。随着IL-35的新细胞来源如CD 8(+)T(+)、B-T细胞和致耐受性树突状细胞DC(tolDC)被鉴定,该细胞因子的更多免疫调节功能被探索。IL-35已被证明与一系列自身免疫性疾病和癌症模型相关。它似乎是一种很有前途诊断生物标记物。进一步了解IL-35的表达和调控机制将有助于开发新的免疫疗法。
Interleukin-35 (IL-35) is the latest addition to the IL-12 family of heterodimeric cytokines, consisting of IL-12 p35 subunit and IL-27 beta subunit Epstein Barr virus induced 3 (EBI3). Since its discovery, IL-35 has been shown to exhibit immunosuppressive activities which are distinct from other members of IL-12 family. IL-35 is also unique in that it is expressed primarily by regulatory T-cells (T-regs) rather than by antigen-presenting cells (APCs). IL-35 can directly suppress effector T-cell proliferation and function and inhibit the differentiation of Th17 cells. It is also able to expand regulatory responses to promote tolerance to infections by generating a potent population of IL-35-producing inducible T-regs (iTr35). As the new cellular sources of IL-35 such as CD8(+)T(regs), B-regs, and tolerogenic dendritic cells DCs (tolDCs) are identified, more immunoregulatory functions of this cytokine are explored. IL-35 has been shown to be associated with a range of autoimmune diseases and cancer models. It appears to be a promising diagnostic bioinarker. A greater understanding of the expression and regulatory mechanisms of IL-35 will be beneficial to the development of novel immune therapies.
