IL-22 is belonging to IL-10 family of regulatory cytokines which includes IL-10, IL-19, IL-20, IL-22, IL-24 and IL-26. Members of this family share partial homology in their amino acid sequences, but they are dissimilar in their biological functions. Produced by T lymphocytes and dendritic cells, IL-10 contributes to the inflammatory response in vivo. IL-22 signals through CRF2-4 and IL-22. It along with IL-17 is rapidly produced by splenic LTi-like cells and can be also produced by Th17 cells. IL-22 likely plays a role in the coordinated response of both adaptive and innate immune systems. Recombinant mouse interleukin-22 contains 147 amino acids and it has approximately 81 % and 92 % amino acid sequence identity with human and rat IL-22.
