Disease

IL13_HUMAN Defects in IL13 may be a cause of susceptibility to allergic rhinitis (ALRH) [MIM:607154. Allergic rhinitis is a common disease of complex inheritance and is characterized by mucosal inflammation caused by allergen exposure.

Function

IL13_HUMAN Cytokine. Inhibits inflammatory cytokine production. Synergizes with IL2 in regulating interferon-gamma synthesis. May be critical in regulating inflammatory and immune responses.
