IL-22Rα2 polyclonal antibody

IL-22Rα2 (interleukin-22 receptor α-2 chain), also known as IL-22 binding protein (IL-22BP), cytokine receptor family class II member 10 (CRF2-10) or CRF2 soluble 1 (CRF2-S1), is a soluble, nonsignaling single chain receptor for IL-22. It is highly expressed in intestine and lymph nodes and is also found in spleen, kidney and liver. IL-22Rα2 has a cytokine-binding domain that contains two FnIII domains. Its affinity for IL-22 is four- to ten-fold higher than that of the membrane bound IL-22 receptor, however it has a dissociation rate up to 20 times lower. By binding to IL-22, IL-22Rα2 prevents the binding to the IL-22 membrane bound receptor and therefore inhibits IL-22 signaling. This suggests that IL-22Rα2 may be important in regulating inflammatory responses. In addition, IL-22Rα2 can be induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) .
