Overview of Gene Research
Il1rap, the interleukin-1 receptor accessory protein, is an essential coreceptor for signaling through the IL-1, IL-33, and IL-36 receptors. It is involved in multiple signaling pathways such as TNF, NF-κB, IL-17, and JAK/STAT, and also plays a role in immune cell differentiation pathways [2,4,5,8]. It is of great biological importance as it is associated with various physiological and pathological processes. Genetic models, like gene knockout (KO) mouse models, are valuable for studying its functions.
In Ewing sarcoma, IL1RAP is induced by oncogenic fusions, and its inactivation triggers anoikis and impedes metastatic dissemination, as it maintains cyst(e)ine and glutathione pools for redox homeostasis and anoikis resistance. It is minimally expressed in normal tissues, making it a promising target for immunotherapy [1]. In acute myeloid leukemia (AML), IL1RAP is highly expressed on bulk blasts and leukemic stem cells but not on normal hematopoietic stem cells. Targeting IL1RAP via RNA interference, genetic deletion, or antibodies inhibits AML pathogenesis in vitro and in vivo without affecting healthy hematopoiesis. IL1RAP also physically interacts with and mediates signaling through FLT3 and c-KIT in AML [3,7]. In systemic sclerosis, targeting IL1RAP with an antibody reduces dermal and pulmonary fibrosis in mouse models, and RNAseq analyses show its inhibition affects inflammation and fibrosis-related processes [4]. In viral and autoimmune myocarditis, IL1RAP blockade with a monoclonal antibody reduces disease severity and preserves cardiac function in mouse models [5]. In pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, blocking IL1RAP on cancer-associated fibroblasts inhibits IL-1-induced chemokine secretion and recruitment of neutrophils and monocytes, counteracting the immunosuppressive microenvironment [6]. In atherosclerosis, IL1RAP blockade in mice reduces plaque size, limits leucocyte accumulation, and reduces chemokine production related to plaque inflammation [8].
In conclusion, Il1rap is crucial for signaling through multiple cytokine receptors and is involved in various biological processes. Model-based research, especially KO mouse models, has revealed its significant roles in diseases such as Ewing sarcoma, AML, systemic sclerosis, myocarditis, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and atherosclerosis. Understanding Il1rap functions provides potential therapeutic targets for these diseases.
