ST2 gene is a member of the interleukin 1 receptor family. ST2, interleukin 1 receptor, type II and interleukin 1 receptor like 2 form a cytokine receptor gene cluster in a region mapped to chromosome 2q12. Studies of the similar gene in mouse reported protein induction by pro-inflammatory stimuli with involvement in the function of helper T cells. ST2 is necessary for endotoxin tolerance by inhibiting TLR responses inducing the Th2 response. Human ST2 shares 68%, 64%, 66%, and 96% sequence homology with mouse, rat, bovine, and monkey, respectively.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions-+4°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions-+4°C, Storage information-+4°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nST2 also known as IL-1RL1 or IL-1RL1 chimera protein is a member of the IL-1 receptor family. It has a molecular mass of approximately 55 kDa. This protein exists in different forms including a membrane-bound form and a soluble variant. Researchers typically find ST2 expressed in various tissues including the lungs gut and cardiovascular system. The expression level can vary significantly depending on the physiological or pathological state.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nST2 interacts with interleukin-33 (IL-33) and functions as its receptor. The binding of IL-33 to ST2 activates immune responses particularly influencing T-helper 2 (Th2) cells. ST2 forms part of a receptor complex including IL-1 receptor accessory protein IL-1RAcP necessary for signal transduction. This interaction leads to the activation of nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-kB) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways facilitating inflammatory responses.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nIL-33 signals through the ST2 receptor participating actively in the immune signaling pathway. This pathway plays a significant role in modulating inflammatory and immune responses. ST2 association with NF-kB broadly affects inflammatory signaling while its involvement with the MAPK pathway aids in cellular responses to cytokines and stress. The close relationship with the IL-33\/ST2 axis highlights its importance in maintaining immune homeostasis and reacting to environmental stressors.\u003cbr\u003e\nST2 has significant associations with asthma and cardiovascular diseases. In asthma the IL-33\/ST2 axis critically contributes to airway inflammation and hyperresponsiveness. Similarly in the context of cardiovascular diseases elevated levels of soluble ST2 are markers of heart failure with the ST2\/IL-33 axis contributing to cardiac remodeling. ST2's connection with inflammatory processes implies it also interacts with other cytokines such as interleukin-6 (IL-6) exacerbating the disease states through shared pathways.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843567702185,"sku":"ab254505","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab254505","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
