English description:
IL-15 is a widely expressed proinflammatory cytokine that is structurally and functionally related to IL-2.
Signals through JAK kinases to activate STAT3, STAT5, and STAT6 transcription factors
Regulates the activation of T cells, neutrophils, and macrophages, and is a stimulatory cytokine promoting dendritic cell function
Dysregulated in chronic inflammatory disorders, including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and pulmonary inflammatory diseases
