Overview of Gene Research
Il22, interleukin-22, is a cytokine crucial for epithelial homeostasis. It plays a role in multiple aspects of epithelial barrier function, such as regulating epithelial cell growth, permeability, mucus and antimicrobial protein production, and complement production [2]. It has been associated with signaling pathways like STAT3, and its dysregulation can impact various biological processes and disease states [4,5]. Genetic models, including KO/CKO mouse models, are valuable for studying its functions.
High levels of Il22 in ileal mouse organoids decreased their survival, though resistant ones grew larger. In vivo, increased Il22 limited intestinal stem cell (ISC) expansion, favoring transit-amplifying (TA) progenitor cell expansion [1]. In a murine model of colitis, Il22Ra1 signaling in MATH1+ cells (goblet and progenitor cells) was essential for maintaining the mucosal barrier and intestinal tissue regeneration, promoting mucin core-2 O-glycan extension [6]. In allogeneic stem cell transplantation in humans, low intestinal Il22 was associated with increased transplant-related mortality [3].
In conclusion, Il22 is essential for epithelial homeostasis and tissue repair in the intestine. Mouse models have revealed its role in regulating cell expansion in the ileum and its importance in maintaining the mucosal barrier during colitis. In the context of allogeneic stem cell transplantation, Il22 levels are associated with patient prognosis, highlighting its significance in these disease areas.
