Interleukin 13 Receptor Alpha 1 (IL13RA1)

Target
IL13RA1
Molecular classification
Receptor, Type I transmembrane protein, Cytokine receptor
01

Overview

Interleukin 13 Receptor Alpha 1 (IL13RA1) is a subunit of the interleukin-13 receptor complex. It plays a key role in mediating immune responses, particularly those involving the cytokines interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-13 (IL-13). It forms functional heterodimeric receptors with the interleukin-4 receptor alpha chain (IL-4Rα). This complex can bind both IL-4 and IL-13, triggering downstream signaling pathways, notably the JAK/STAT pathway. IL-13RA1 is expressed ubiquitously across tissues and is implicated in diseases such as asthma, autoimmune disorders, and cancer.

Mechanism of action

Monoclonal antibodies (e.g., Dupilumab) block IL-4 and IL-13 signaling by targeting shared receptor subunits.

Safety considerations

Altered expression linked variably either with tumor progression or suppression depending on context. High expression correlates with better survival rates among lung cancer patients but poorer outcomes elsewhere.
