Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1991 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

Crohn's disease: Th1, Th17 or both? The change of a paradigm: new immunological and genetic insights implicate Th17 cells in the pathogenesis of Crohn's disease [PDF]
, 2009 Traditionally, Crohn's disease has been associated with a Th1 cytokine profile, while Th2 cytokines are modulators of ulcerative colitis. This concept has been challenged by the description of tolerising regulatory T cells (Treg) and by proinflammatory ...

Mediators of Inflammation, 1999 Although it is now accepted that killer-cell inhibitory receptors (KIRs), which were molecularly cloned in 1995, deliver negative signals to natural killer (NK) cells regarding the recognition of target cells, it is still unclear how the expression of ...

Targeted Activation of T Cells with IL-2-Coupled Nanoparticles
Cells, 2020 Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is a T cell growth factor particularly required in regulatory T cell maintenance and memory T cell responses. High-dose IL-2 treatment was the first FDA-approved immunotherapy for cancer, while low-dose IL-2 administration has shown ...

Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, 1988 Publisher Summary Although it was assumed initially that the various activities found in conditioned media were solely produced by lymphocytes, this idea was broadened subsequently to allow for activities that are produced by nonlymphoid cells, and the term cytokine is now sometimes used.

Interleukin-2 receptor and ovarian cancer [PDF]
British Journal of Cancer, 1993 Interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) can be detected in serum. We estimated the IL-2R in the serum of 78 women, of whom 30 were diagnosed as having malignant ovarian tumours, five had non ovarian tumours, one had a negative second look laparotomy, 11 had benign ovarian tumours, three had uterine fibroids and 28 were age-matched controls.
