The IL-1 family is comprised of 11 structurally related ligands, including recently re-named IL-36alpha (IL-1F6), beta (IL-1F8), and gamma (IL-1F9). IL-36alpha is highly expressed in psoriatic plaques, as are IL-36beta and IL-36gamma, and is the only IL-1 family member found to be expressed by T cells, as well as monocytes and B cells. Primarily found in skin and lymphoid tissues, IL-36alpha is also found to a lesser extent in tissues of the fetal brain, trachea, stomach, and intestine. IL-36alpha signals through a combination of the IL-1Rrp2 (IL-1R6) receptor, which is primarily expressed on certain dendritic cells, and the widely expressed IL-RAcP (IL-1 receptor accessory protein). IL-36alpha also functions as an agonist of NF-kappaB and MAPK pathways, and induces the production of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines, including IL-6, IL-8, BD-2, and BD-3.
