Characterisation of bovine leukocyte Ig-like receptors [PDF]
Leukocyte Immunoglobulin-like receptors (LILR) are innate immune receptors involved in regulating both innate and adaptive immune functions. LILR show more interspecies conservation than the closely related Killer Ig-like receptors, and homologues have ...

Nanometer-scale organization of the alpha subunits of the receptors for IL2 and IL15 in human T lymphoma cells [PDF]
Interleukin 2 and interleukin 15 (IL2 and IL15, respectively) provide quite distinct contributions to T-cell-mediated immunity, despite having similar receptor composition and signaling machinery.

Vaccinia virus protein A46R targets multiple Toll-like-interleukin-1 receptor adaptors and contributes to virulence [PDF]
Viral immune evasion strategies target key aspects of the host antiviral response. Recently, it has been recognized that Toll-like receptors (TLRs) have a role in innate defense against viruses.

Priming by recombinant chicken interleukin-2 induces selective expression of IL-8 and IL-18 mRNA in chicken heterophils during receptor-mediated phagocytosis of opsonized and nonopsonized Salmonella enterica serovar enteritidis [PDF]
Heterophils, the principal avian polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) equivalent to the mammalian neutrophil, function as professional phagocytes against bacterial infections, mediate acute inflammation, and respond to cytokine stimulation to aid in ...

Soluble Interleukin-2 Receptors in Patients with Advanced Colorectal Carcinoma
The levels of soluble interleukin-2 receptors (sIL-2R) were measured in the serum of 52 patients with advanced colorectal carcinoma and compared to CEA and CA 19-9 levels. Twenty-five normal, age and sex-matched individuals served as controls.

Serum soluble interleukin-2 receptors in epithelial ovarian cancer patients
The levels of soluble interleukin-2 receptors (sIL-R2) were measured in the serum of 52 patients with epithelial ovarian carcinoma as well as in 25 age and sex-matched normal controls.

The interleukins comprise a class of hormones that have a definite known secondary and tertiary structure under physiologic conditions. The interleukin-2 is the leader in T cell differentiation. The interleukin-2 acts via interaction with high affinity, cell bound receptors (IL-2R). High affinity IL-2 receptors are constructed by cooperative binding of

The increase in IL-2 receptor serum levels is one of the most typical changes in immune parameters during IL-2 cancer immunotherapy. To better define the effects of prolonged IL-2 injection on SIL-2R levels, we evaluated 7 advanced small cell lung cancer

Essential role of NK cells in IgG therapy for experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.
Intravenous immunoglobulin has long been used in treating autoimmune diseases, although mechanisms remain uncertain. Activating Fcγ receptors are receptors of IgG and reported to be essential in intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy.
