General Information aboutHuman CD126/IL6R/Interleukin-6 receptor subunit alpha recombinant protein
A portion of the interleukin 6 receptor, which binds to IL6 with low affinity, but does not transmit signals (PubMed: 28265003). Signal activation must be related to IL6ST. Activation leads to immune response, acute phase response, and regulation of hematopoietic function (possibly). The interaction of membrane-bound IL6R and IL6ST stimulates “classical signaling” and the limited expression of IL6R limits classical IL6 signaling to only a few tissues, such as the liver and some cells of the immune system. In the process of binding of IL6R and soluble IL6R to IL6ST, “anti-signal transmission” is stimulated. Furthermore, when the membrane-bound IL6: IL6R complex on the transmitting cell activates the IL6ST receptor on the adjacent receptor, the “raster signal” will (possibly) occur
