highlights the first 16 interleukins,which were named in the order of their discovery.Many of the interleukins listed form homodi-meric compounds and use the c and/or c chains in their receptors.(Cell 132,p.324)Cytokines II describes the remainder of the numerically named interleukins,many of which were discovered during the last decade.Due to the complexity of the heterodimeric ligands and receptors used by some of these factors,they present a unique challenge in the elucidation of their function during health and disease.(Cell 132,p.500)Cytokines III reviews the TNF family.Two important features of this group include the homotrimeric motif for both the ligands and the receptors and the capacity for bi-directional signaling.Targeting this family of inflammatory modulators has revolutionized the treatment of autoimmune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis.(Cell 132,p.900)Cytokines IV includes many of the factors discovered prior to the current scheme for interleukin nomenclature.For historical reasons,the origi-nal names are still in use.Note that many of these factors share receptors with other interleukins,such as IL-7R and gp130,which are used by TSLP and IL-6,respectively.(Cell 132,p.1062)1062.e1 Cell 132,March 21,2008 2008 Elsevier Inc.DOI 10.1016/j.cell.2008.02.024SnapShot:Cytokines IVCristina M.Tato and Daniel J.CuaSchering-Plough
