abstract：:IL-31, a newly identified member of the IL-6 cytokine family, is involved in many pathological conditions, including atopic dermatitis and pruritis. In this study, we investigated how expression of IL-31 is regulated in T cells and mast cells. We observed that expression of IL-31 required a calcium signal and was depe...
