MAMMALIAN PHENOTYPE - ANNOTATIONS

The Mouse Adult Gross Anatomy Ontology and Mammalian Phenotype Ontology are downloaded weekly from the Mouse Genome Informatics databases at Jackson Laboratories (ftp://ftp.informatics.jax.org/pub/reports/index.html).

Accession:MP:0008618 term browser browse the term
Definition:reduction in the amount in the blood of a heterodimeric cytokine that plays a role in innate and adaptive immune responses; it is produced by dendritic cells, macrophages and a variety of other immune cells and plays a role in the stimulation of interferon-gamma production by T-cells and natural killer cells
Comment:Interleukin-12 is a 70 kDa protein that is composed of covalently linked 40 kDa (IL-12b) and 35 kDa (IL-12a) subunits. The 40 kDa subunit (IL-12b) also is a component of interleukin-23 together with the IL-23a ( 19kDa) chain.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: decreased circulating IL-12 level;   decreased circulating IL-12 p70 level;   decreased circulating IL12 level;   decreased circulating cytotoxic lymphocyte maturation factor level;   decreased circulating interleukin-12 p70 level;   decreased circulating natural killer cell stimulatory factor level;   reduced circulating IL-12 level;   reduced circulating IL-12 p70 level;   reduced circulating IL12 level;   reduced circulating cytotoxic lymphocyte maturation factor level;   reduced circulating interleukin-12 p70 level;   reduced circulating natural killer cell stimulatory factor level
