Gene: IL15
Official Full Name: interleukin 15provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine that regulates T and natural killer cell activation and proliferation. This cytokine and interleukine 2 share many biological activities. They are found to bind common hematopoietin receptor subunits, and may compete for the same receptor, and thus negatively regulate each other's activity. The number of CD8+ memory cells is shown to be controlled by a balance between this cytokine and IL2. This cytokine induces the activation of JAK kinases, as well as the phosphorylation and activation of transcription activators STAT3, STAT5, and STAT6. Studies of the mouse counterpart suggested that this cytokine may increase the expression of apoptosis inhibitor BCL2L1/BCL-x(L), possibly through the transcription activation activity of STAT6, and thus prevent apoptosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]

IL15 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell lines in which the IL15 gene has been disrupted, providing researchers with a valuable tool to study the role of Interleukin 15 (IL-15) in immune regulation and its involvement in various biological processes. This targeted gene knockout produces cells that lack the expression of IL-15, a cytokine critical for the growth, survival, and activation of various immune cells, particularly CD8+ T cells and natural killer (NK) cells. The absence of IL-15 allows for detailed investigations into immune response mechanisms, signaling pathways, and cellular interactions that are otherwise obscured by the presence of functional IL-15.
The primary mechanism of action involves the elimination of IL-15 signaling, enabling researchers to analyze changes in immune responses and tumor microenvironments under conditions devoid of this key cytokine. This has profound implications for understanding acute and chronic inflammatory responses, as well as for the development of immunotherapeutics. By utilizing these knockout cell lines, scientists can elucidate the role of IL-15 in various diseases, including autoimmune disorders and cancers, making them instrumental in preclinical research.
IL15 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer significant advantages over traditional research methods, including increased specificity and reproducibility when investigating the cytokine's functions. Unlike alternative approaches that may yield incomplete or inconsistent results, these knockout lines provide a clear and focused system for studying IL-15-related pathways. They are particularly suited for researchers seeking to explore novel therapeutic targets and immunotherapy strategies.
For clinicians and researchers alike, the value of utilizing IL15 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their ability to unlock new insights into immune dynamics which could lead to advancements in treatment paradigms. These cell lines can facilitate the development of targeted therapies that harness or modulate immune responses for improved patient outcomes.
