IL23R is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the class I cytokine receptor superfamily, with the full-length core polypeptide having an estimated molecular weight of approximately 70 kDa that can increase after N-linked glycosylation. This receptor heterodimerizes with IL12Rβ1 to form an active receptor complex on the surface of Th17 cells, innate lymphoid cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, and activated natural killer cells. IL-23 is a heterodimeric cytokine composed of a unique p19 subunit and the common p40 subunit shared with IL-12 that engages this receptor complex. IL23R ligation activates the receptor-associated kinases JAK2 and TYK2, leading to phosphorylation of receptor-associated signaling components and downstream STAT proteins. STAT3 is a major mediator of IL-23 signaling, with STAT4 also contributing in a cell-type-dependent manner. Activated STAT3 and STAT4 translocate to the nucleus and regulate transcriptional programs that promote the expression of effector molecules including IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-22, and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF).

IL23R biological function permeates several interconnecting physiological and pathological networks:
Psoriasis and Cutaneous Inflammation: The IL-23/IL-17 axis is currently recognized as a major pathway involved in plaque psoriasis pathogenesis. Experimental intradermal injection of IL-23 in wild-type mice induces epidermal hyperplasia, erythema, and inflammatory infiltrates that resemble key features of human psoriatic lesions.
Advance your cytokine receptor research with our recombinant IL23R protein offerings for autoimmune disease research. The type I transmembrane topology, extensive disulfide bonding, and glycosylation-dependent folding of IL23R present particular production challenges. With these considerations in mind, appropriate expression and formulation strategies can be selected to produce IL23R constructs suitable for different research applications. Available research formats may include membrane-associated receptor constructs and soluble extracellular domain (ECD) proteins, while receptor complex formats can be evaluated according to specific product availability and project requirements. Expression systems, construct design, and characterization strategies are selected according to the intended protein format and application. These preparations can be characterized using appropriate biochemical and biophysical methods to support structural studies, ligand-binding assays, and antibody screening.

Development of reliable, reproducible cellular models unequivocally dissecting IL23R-driven biology is important for testing therapeutic candidates. We have cationic stable cassette generating methods for the co-expression of wild-type or disease-related human, mouse and rat IL23R forms alongside a symmetrical loss-of-function modulated endogenous expression assay. They are additionally amenable to use with high-throughput IL-23 neutralization assays, Th17 differentiation studies, STAT3 reporter gene analysis and cytokine profiling thus providing the experimental reproducibility requisite for multi-phase research priorities in parallel.
