Background

IL-34 is a 6-α-helix, proinflammatory cytokine that serves as a ligand for colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor (CSF1R). It is expressed most abundantly by spleen cells. It primarily stimulates human peripheral blood monocyte proliferation and macrophage colony formation. It is also required for Langerhans cell and microglia development. IL-34 has been shown to play a protective role in cancer and Alzheimer’s disease, but it can promote the progression of several autoimmune, inflammatory, and metabolic diseases. As such IL-34 could be used as a biomarker to mark the progression of these diseases (PMID: 22579672, 27577879, 31940023).
