Rat IL17-A (also known as Interleukin-17, Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated 8 and CTLA-8) is a proinflammatory cytokine member of a six-species family of proteins (IL-17A-17F).
Rat IL-17A protein is a homodimer consisting of two 134aa peptides.
IL-17A is secreted mainly by activated CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes and acts through its receptor, IL-17R, to induce the expression of many mediators of inflammation, most strikingly, those that are involved in the proliferation, maturation and chemotaxis of neutrophils.
Elevated levels of IL-17A have been associated with several conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, airway inflammation, allograft rejection, inflammatory bowel disease, psoriasis, cancer and multiple sclerosis.
There is 58% identity between the aa sequence of human and rat IL-17A.
IL-17A is ideal for investigators involved in immunology research.
