Table 1

The function of IL-32 isoforms in different cell type.

Cell type	IL-32 isoform	Targets	Function	Reference
U937 and monocyte-derived DCs	IL-32β	Increase in IL-10 production	Anti-inflammatory effects	[65]
Tumor cells	IL-32β	Decrease IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and increase IL-10 production	Tumor growth	[78]
Myeloid cells and U937 cells	IL-32β	Increase in IL-10 production	Anti-inflammatory effects	[56]
Eosinophils	IL-32γ	Induces production of IL-6, TNF-α, IL-8, and VEGF	Inflammation of allergic rhinitis	[15]
Eosinophils	IL-32γ	Induces IL-1β, TNF-α, CXCL8, CCL3, CCL4, CD18, and ICAM-1	Interacts with NOD1 or NOD2; PR3 activation	[79]
Monocytes or monocyte-derived macrophages	IL-32γ	TNF-a, IL-1b, IL-6, GROa/CXCL1, and MCP-1/CCL2, IL-10, and IL-1ra	Activation of ERK1/2, Akt, and Fyn signaling pathways	[80]
