<strong>IL</strong>-<strong>23</strong> promoting cellular immunity<br />

its production in hematopoietic cells is critical.<br />

its biological <strong>activity</strong> requires cell-specific expression<br />

Its important in indirectly control <strong>of</strong> infections<br />

<strong>IL</strong>-<strong>23</strong> modulates DC costimulatory function<br />

pathways <strong>of</strong> <strong>IL</strong>-12 <strong>and</strong> <strong>IL</strong>-<strong>23</strong> are very similar<br />

<strong>IL</strong>-<strong>23</strong>could act to down-regulate Stat4-dependent actions <strong>of</strong> <strong>IL</strong>-12<br />

unique role for <strong>IL</strong>-<strong>23</strong> in promoting cellular immune responses<br />
