Background information
IL-21 is a four α-helix bundle cytokine and closely related to IL-2, IL-7, and IL-15. IL-21 expression is restricted to activated CD4+ T helper cells and NKT cells. The functional receptor for IL-21, composed of the IL-21 receptor- and the common γ-chain, is expressed on various hematopoietic cells including T, B, NK and dendritic cells.

Applications
MACS GMP Recombinant Human IL-21 can be used for a variety of applications, including the ex vivo generation of antigen-specific cytotoxic T cells1,2 or the ex vivo stimulation of NK cells3.
