Abstract

Interleukin-35 (IL-35) causes cancer to become more tumorigenic, prevents cancer cells from dying, and accelerates the spread of the disease. Cancer is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality and is one of many side effects of immunosuppressants. The increasing use of immunosuppressants in non-transplant patients especially helps define the effect of mild to moderate immunosuppression more precisely. This review examined the relationship between IL-35 immunosuppression, cancer, and autoimmune diseases, and the new types of diseases it creates.
