产品背景
Cytokine that acts as a ligand to CD40/TNFRSF5 (PubMed:1280226, PubMed:31331973).
Costimulates T-cell proliferation and cytokine production (PubMed:8617933).
Its cross-linking on T-cells generates a costimulatory signal which enhances the production of IL4 and IL10 in conjunction with the TCR/CD3 ligation and CD28 costimulation (PubMed:8617933).
Induces the activation of NF-kappa-B (PubMed:15067037, PubMed:31331973).
Induces the activation of kinases MAPK8 and PAK2 in T-cells (PubMed:15067037).
Induces tyrosine phosphorylation of isoform 3 of CD28 (PubMed:15067037).
Mediates B-cell proliferation in the absence of co-stimulus as well as IgE production in the presence of IL4 (By similarity).
Involved in immunoglobulin class switching (By similarity).
