IL-16 is a CD8 + T cell-derived cytokine that induces chemotaxis of CD4 + T cells and CD4 + monocytes and eosinophils. Analysis by gel filtration suggests that, under physiological conditions, human IL-16 exists predominantly as a noncovalently linked multimer, but that some IL-16 may exist as a monomer. However, only the multimeric form appears to possess chemotactic activity, suggesting that receptor cross-linking may be required for activity. IL-16 also induces expression of IL-2 receptor (IL-2R) and MHC class II molecules on CD4 + T cells. Human and murine IL-16 show significant cross-species reactivity. GenScript Interleukin (IL)-16, human produced in E. coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 130 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 13,400 Da.
