“…Parham et al [9] found that human monocytes and dendritic cells (DC) express negligible levels of IL23R, however murine bone-marrow-derived (but not peritoneal) macrophages stimulated with LPS and IL-10 expressed Il23r in the absence of detectable Il12rb1, which could be induced by IFNγ stimulation. Inflammatory macrophages isolated from brains of mice with EAE, but not from healthy mice, expressed Il23r [3], and in a house dust mite model of airway inflammation, IL-23R positive cells in the lung were mainly macrophages and CD11 + dendritic cells [100]. These data suggest that IL-23R in myeloid cells may be expressed only in particular conditions, consistent with the lack of expression by unstimulated human myeloid cells reported in databases [101,102].…”
