== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/IL33_MOUSE IL33_MOUSE] Cytokine that binds to and signals through the IL1RL1/ST2 receptor which in turn activates NF-kappa-B and MAPK signaling pathways in target cells. Involved in the maturation of Th2 cells inducing the secretion of T-helper type 2-associated cytokines. Also involved in activation of mast cells, basophils, eosinophils and natural killer cells. Acts as a chemoattractant for Th2 cells, and may function as an "alarmin", that amplifies immune responses during tissue injury.  In quiescent endothelia the uncleaved form is constitutively and abundantly expressed, and acts as a chromatin-associated nuclear factor with transcriptional repressor properties, it may sequester nuclear NF-kappaB/RELA, lowering expression of its targets. This form is rapidely lost upon angiogenic or proinflammatory activation.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Within the interleukin 1 (IL-1) cytokine family, IL-1 receptor accessory protein (IL-1RAcP) is the co-receptor for eight receptor-cytokine pairs, including those involving cytokines IL-1beta and IL-33. Unlike IL-1beta, IL-33 does not have a signaling complex that includes both its cognate receptor, ST2, and the shared co-receptor IL-1RAcP, which we now present here. Although the IL-1beta and IL-33 complexes shared structural features and engaged identical molecular surfaces of IL-1RAcP, these cytokines had starkly different strategies for co-receptor engagement and signal activation. Our data suggest that IL-1beta binds to IL-1RI to properly present the cytokine to IL-1RAcP, whereas IL-33 binds to ST2 in order to conformationally constrain the cognate receptor in an IL-1RAcP-receptive state. These findings indicate that members of the IL-1 family of cytokines use distinct molecular mechanisms to signal through their shared co-receptor, and they provide the foundation from which to design new therapies to target IL-33 signaling.
