Descriptor Spanish: Interleucina-33
Descriptor interleucina-33
Scope note: Miembro de la familia de proteínas INTERLEUCINA-1 implicada en la maduración de las CÉLULAS TH2 y en la activación de los MASTOCITOS, BASÓFILOS, EOSINÓFILOS y CÉLULAS NK. También se produce por las CÉLULAS ENDOTELIALES, CÉLULAS EPITELIALES y FIBROBLASTOS, donde puede funcionar como una alarmina para modular las respuestas inflamatorias e inmunitarias al daño tisular.
