    protein that promotes inflammation and regulates immune responses

    Interleukin-23 (IL-23) is a type of cytokine, which is a protein that plays a crucial role in the immune system by promoting inflammation and helping to regulate the body's defense against infections. It is particularly important in the development and maintenance of certain autoimmune diseases, such as psoriasis and inflammatory bowel disease, by influencing the activity of specific immune cells called T-helper 17 (Th17) cells.
