UniProt Comment
  • Interleukin-16 stimulates a migratory response in CD4+ lymphocytes, monocytes, and eosinophils. Primes CD4+ T-cells for IL-2 and IL-15 responsiveness. Also induces T-lymphocyte expression of interleukin 2 receptor. Ligand for CD4.

Imputed data reveals in IL16R that is a risk variant for cancer.

This locus harbours a cis-pQTL to Interleukin-16 (IL16). Replication was not attempted. Imputed data reveals a much stronger association, including coding variant rs11556218 (p=6.36×10-27), which is a risk variant for cancer in a meta-analysis [PubMed]

The information gathered here is a result of an attempt to keep track of all interesting information that we encountered while investigating these loci. Please bear in mind that the annotation given here is neither complete nor free of errors, and that all information provided here should be confirmed by additional literature research before being used as a basis for firm conclusions or further experiments.
