Interleukin receptor
An interleukin receptor is a cytokine receptor for interleukins.
Types
There are two main families of Interleukin receptors, type 1 and type 2 cytokine receptors.
Type 1
Type 1 interleukin receptors include:[1][2]
- Interleukin-2 receptor
- Interleukin-3 receptor
- Interleukin-4 receptor
- Interleukin-5 receptor
- Interleukin-6 receptor
- Interleukin-7 receptor
- Interleukin-9 receptor
- Interleukin-11 receptor
- Interleukin-12 receptor
- Interleukin-13 receptor
- Interleukin-15 receptor
- Interleukin-21 receptor
- Interleukin-23 receptor
- Interleukin-27 receptor
Type 2
Type 2 interleukin receptors include:[3]
Other
- Interleukin-1 receptor and interleukin-18 receptor belong to the immunoglobulin superfamily.
- Interleukin-8 receptor, RANTES receptors (CCR1, CCR3, CCR5), MIP-1 receptor, PF4 receptor, M-CSF receptor and NAP-2 receptor belong to the chemokine receptor family.
