Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine structurally related to interleukin 10 (IL10). This cytokine has been shown to transduce its signal through signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) in keratinocytes. A specific receptor for this cytokine is found to be expressed in skin and upregulated dramatically in psoriatic skin, suggesting a role for this protein in epidermal function and psoriasis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],function:Cytokine that may be involved in epidermal function and psoriasis. Acts through STAT3.,similarity:Belongs to the IL-10 family.,tissue specificity:Expressed at very low levels in skin, trachea, and other tissues.,
