Background Information
IL-5 is a 4-α-helix, pleiotropic cytokine that regulates the activities of B cells, eosinophils, and basophils. It is produced mostly by CD4+ T cells, eosinophils, and basophils, and signals through its specific receptor (IL-5R) on target cells to activate downstream JAK/STAT, Btk, and Ras/ERk pathways. Due to its pleiotropic effects, IL-5 plays a role in both innate and adaptive immune responses. It is a strong promoter of eosinophil differentiation, migration, maturation, and survival. Additionally, IL-5 is also capable of stimulating activated B cells to differentiate into antibody-secreting cells. Elevated IL-5 levels are strongly correlated with eosinophilia, which is a hallmark feature of allergy, asthma, and hypersensitivity. (PMID: 21986312, 22174445, 19819937, 16895557)
