Research Abstract |
Interleukin-25 (IL-25) is one of the epithelial cell-derived cytokines which play critical roles in allergic inflammations, while it still remained unclear which cell populations express IL-25 receptor (IL-25R) and mediate its biological activities. In this study, we analyzed the expression level of IL-25R on all mouse hematopoietic cells and clarified that IL-25R is preferentially expressed on eosinophil progenitors (EoP). It was also suggested that IL-25 may act as a survival/proliferation factor for EoP.
