Description   Interleukin-13 (IL-13) is a multifunctional cytokine whose net principle action is to diminish inflammatory responses. IL-13 is an important cytokine secreted from type 2 helper T lymphocytes. It is essential for modulating IgE synthesis by human B cells. Previous studies showed that polymorphisms in the IL-13 gene were associated with serum total IgE or allergic asthma. IL-13 is a pleiotropic cytokine, which shares many biological functions with IL-4. Recombinant Human IL-13 produced in E. coli is a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 114 amino acids with a MW of 12.5 kDa.
