Function
Homodimeric cytokine expressed predominantly by T-lymphocytes and NK cells that plays an important role in the survival, differentiation, and chemotaxis of eosinophils. Also acts on activated and resting B-cells to induce immunoglobulin production, growth, and differentiation. Mechanistically, exerts its biological effects through a receptor composed of IL5RA subunit and the cytokine receptor common subunit beta/CSF2RB.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Secreted
Tissue Specificity: Expressed in lymphoid cells, including spleen, thymus, lymph nodes and peripheral blood mononuclear cells
