Summary

IL34 (interleukin 34, HGNC:28529) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 16q22.1, encoding Interleukin-34 (Q6ZMJ4). Cytokine that promotes the proliferation, survival and differentiation of monocytes and macrophages.

Interleukin-34 is a cytokine that promotes the differentiation and viability of monocytes and macrophages through the colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor (CSF1R; MIM 164770) (Lin et al., 2008 [PubMed 18467591]).

Function. Cytokine that promotes the proliferation, survival and differentiation of monocytes and macrophages. Promotes the release of pro-inflammatory chemokines, and thereby plays an important role in innate immunity and in inflammatory processes. Plays an important role in the regulation of osteoclast proliferation and differentiation, and in the regulation of bone resorption. Signaling via CSF1R and its downstream effectors stimulates phosphorylation of MAPK1/ERK2 AND MAPK3/ERK1.

Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Interacts with CSF1R.

Subcellular location. Secreted.

Tissue specificity. Detected in the sinusoidal epithelium in the red pulp of spleen (at protein level). Predominantly expressed in spleen. Also detected in a range of other tissues including heart, brain, lung, liver, kidney, thymus, testis, ovary, small intestine, prostate and colon.

Similarity. Belongs to the IL-34 family.
