ABERRANT EXPRESSION OF IL-22RA1 ON HEMATOPOIETIC CELLS AS IMMUNOLOGICALLY SIGNATURE OF PRIMARY SJOGREN’S SYNDROME AND SJOGREN-ASSOCIATED NON-HODGKIN …

Background: Interleukin (IL)-22 is a potent mediator of cellular inflammatory responses that has been recently reported to play a role in the pathogenesis of primary Sjogren's Syndrome (p-SS) (1, 2) and of T and B lymphomas. IL-22 biological activity is initiated by binding to a cell-surface complex composed of two subunits, IL-22R1 and IL-10R2 receptor chains, and further regulated by interactions with a soluble binding protein, IL-22BP. Unlike the IL-10R2, which is constitutively expressed in many human tissues, IL-22R1 is not detectable in immune cells. Objectives: Aim of this study was to better characterize the role of IL-22 axis in the pathogenesis of p-SS and p-SSassociated lymphomas…
