“…It is through this Type II receptor complex that IL-4 and IL-13 mediate their effects on non-hematopoietic cells, which generally lack C, and therefore Type I receptor expression. IL-13R1 surface expression is absent on resting mouse and human T-cells and on mouse B-cells (Ogata, et al, 1998, Umeshita-Suyama, et al, 2000, although recent studies suggested inducible expression on mouse and human CD4+ T-cells (Newcomb, et al, 2009, Newcomb, et al, 2011. Related evolutionarily to C, IL-13R1 has acquired a third extra Ig-like domain, D1, allowing extra contacts with IL-13 in Type II receptor complexes (LaPorte, et al, 2008).…”
