IL-31 is a recently discovered helical cytokine, belonging to the gp130/IL-6 cytokine family. The receptors for IL-6 family are type I receptors, and they share a number of common structural motifs, such as the cytokine-binding domain with two pairs of conserved cysteine residues and a WSXWS sequence motif in the extracellular domain. IL-31 is expressed preferentially by activated Th2 CD4+ T cells, signaling through a heterodimeric receptor complex composed of IL-31RA and OSMR. Recent studies in both humans and mice have suggested a link between IL-31/IL-31R expression and skin inflammation although the functional significance of endogenous IL-31/IL-31R interactions in influencing innate and adaptive immune responses remains unknown.
