“…The monomeric receptor interleukin‐13 receptor alpha 2 (IL‐13Rα2), which has a higher affinity to interleukin‐13 (IL‐13) than that of IL‐13Rα1 (Andrews, Holloway, Puddicombe, Holgate, & Davies, ), has significant roles in GB cells and can be used as a decoy receptor (Newman et al., ; Rahaman et al., ). Thus, several groups have reported the potency of targeting IL‐13Rα2 for GB therapy (Brown et al., ; Joshi, Husain, & Puri, ; Sattiraju et al., ; Sengupta, Thaci, Crawford, & Sampath, ; Thaci et al., ). We also reported the efficacy of targeting IL‐13Rα2 in GB cells with an immunotoxin, such as the cytotoxin IL‐13, in which receptor‐targeted human IL‐13 was fused with a mutated form of a Pseudomonas exotoxin (Kawakami, Kawakami, Liu, & Puri, ; Kawakami, Kawakami, & Puri, ; Kawakami, Kioi, Liu, Kawakami, & Puri, ).…”
