Background InformationInterleukin-12 subunit alpha/beta (UniProt: P29459/ P29460; also known as IL-12A/IL-12B, Cytotoxic lymphocyte maturation factor 35 kDa/40 kDa subunits, CLMF p35/CLMF40, IL-12 subunit p35, NK cell stimulatory factor chain 1/1, NKSF1/2) are encoded by the IL12A/IL12B (also known as NKSF1/NKSF2) genes (Gene ID: 3592/3593) in human. IL-12 is a heterodimeric pro-inflammatory cytokine composed of covalently linked p35 and p40 subunits. The two genes encoding p35 and p40 are unrelated and located on separate chromosomes. However, both genes encoding IL-12 need to be expressed coordinately in the same cells to produce the biologically active heterodimer. It has been reported that in the absence of p35 subunit p40 is secreted as a monomer or a homodimer; however, p35 subunit is secreted only when associated with p40. IL-12 is secreted by activated monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells, and has been shown to target naïve, resting CD4+ T cells to promote their proliferation and secretion of cytokines. Microbial products are reported to be strong inducers of IL-12 by these cells. Production of IL-12 is shown to be regulated by positive and negative regulatory mechanisms. IL-10 is considered as a potent inhibitor of IL-12 production by blocking transcription of both of its encoding genes. TGF-β is also an inhibitor of IL-12 production. It acts by reducing the stability of IL-12 p40 mRNA. IL-12 induces the production of interferon- and favors the differentiation of T helper 1 (Th1) cells and forms a link between innate resistance and adaptive immunity. (Ref.: Trinchieri, G. (2003). Nat. Rev. Immunol. 3(2); 133-146).
