IL-7 plays a key role in lymphopoiesis and lymphoid homeostasis (1).
Stromal and epithelial cells within the bone marrow and thymus produce IL-7 (1).
The primary targets of IL-7 are T cells, B cells, and dendritic cells (1).
IL-7 is crucial for T cell development, the importance of which is underscored by the lack of T cells in both mice and humans that are deficient in IL-7/IL-7R signaling (1,2).
While IL-7 appears to be required for B cell development in mice, the role of IL-7 in human B cell development is unclear (1,3).
In addition to its effects on T cell lymphopoiesis, IL-7 promotes the maintenance and survival of na ve and memory alpha beta T cells, as well as gamma delta T cells (1).
The IL-7 receptor is a heterodimer of the common gamma chain, gamma c, and the IL-7-specific IL-7R alpha (1).
IL-7 activates PI3K/Akt, Jak1/2, and Stat1, 3, and 5 (1).
