Long-term effects of intermittent IL-2 in HIV infection: extended follow-up of the INSIGHT STALWART Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND The Study of Aldesleukin with and without Antiretroviral Therapy (STALWART) was designed to evaluate whether intermittent IL-2 alone or with peri-cycle ART increased CD4+ cell counts (and so delayed initiation of ART) in HIV infected ...

Paracrine IL-2 Is Required for Optimal Type 2 Effector Cytokine Production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
IL-2 is a pleiotropic cytokine that promotes the differentiation of Th cell subsets, including Th1, Th2, and Th9 cells, but it impairs the development of Th17 and T follicular helper cells.

The IL-2 – IL-2 receptor pathway: Key to understanding multiple sclerosis

open access: yesJournal of Translational Autoimmunity, 2021
The development, progression, diagnosis and treatment of autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis (MS), are convoluted processes which remain incompletely understood. Multiple studies demonstrated that the interleukin (IL)-2 - IL-2 receptor (IL-2R) pathway plays a pivotal role within these processes.

Interleukin 2 transcription factors as molecular targets of cAMP inhibition: delayed inhibition kinetics and combinatorial transcription roles [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Elevation of cAMP can cause gene-specific inhibition of interleukin 2 (IL-2) expression. To investigate the mechanism of this effect, we have combined electrophoretic mobility shift assays and in vivo genomic footprinting to assess both the availability ...

In silico data mining of large-scale databases for the virtual screening of human interleukin-2 inhibitors

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica, 2021
Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is involved in the activation and differentiation of T-helper cells. Uncontrolled activated T cells play a key role in the pathophysiology by stimulating inflammation and autoimmune diseases like arthritis, psoriasis and Crohn’s ...

IL-2/anti-IL-2 mAb immunocomplexes: A renascence of IL-2 in cancer immunotherapy? [PDF]

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2015
The in vivo biological activity of IL-2 can be dramatically increased by complexing with anti-IL-2 mAb. Moreover, IL-2/anti-IL-2 mAb immunocomplexes selectively stimulate different subsets of immune cells, depending on the clone of anti-IL-2 mAb that is used.

Immune Mechanism of Tumor Cell Lysate Combined with IL-2 Preventing Melanoma and Inhibiting Tumor Growth

open access: yesZhongliu Fangzhi Yanjiu, 2021
Objective To investigate the preventive and inhibitory effects of tumor cell lysate(TCL) combined with IL-2 on melanoma and the potential immune mechanism. Methods The B16F10 melanoma TCL cell were prepared using an ultrasonic disruptor.

IL-2 coordinates IL-2–producing and regulatory T cell interplay [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Medicine, 2013
Many species of bacteria use quorum sensing to sense the amount of secreted metabolites and to adapt their growth according to their population density. We asked whether similar mechanisms would operate in lymphocyte homeostasis. We investigated the regulation of the size of interleukin-2 (IL-2)–producing CD4+ T cell (IL-2p) pool using different IL-2 ...

Differential Interleukin-2 Transcription Kinetics Render Mouse but Not Human T Cells Vulnerable to Splicing Inhibition Early after Activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
T cells are nodal players in the adaptive immune response against pathogens and malignant cells. Alternative splicing plays a crucial role in T cell activation, which is analyzed mainly at later time points upon stimulation. Here we have discovered a 2-h
