About Il16

Summary

Enables cytokine activity. Involved in cytokine-mediated signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including induction of positive chemotaxis; positive regulation of chemokine production; and positive regulation of neutrophil activation. Located in collagen-containing extracellular matrix. Is expressed in several structures, including foregut; jaw; limb; respiratory system; and vibrissa. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma and prostate Cancer. Orthologous to human IL16 (interleukin 16). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
