Structure-function relationships for the interleukin 2 receptor system

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1987
Receptors for interleukin 2 (IL-2) esit in at least three forms which differ in their subunit compositio, their affinity for ligand and their ability to mediate a cellular reponse.

Targeted Activation of T Cells with IL-2-Coupled Nanoparticles

open access: yesCells, 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 ...

Effect of human breast milk on innate immune response: Up-regulation of bacterial pattern recognition receptors and innate cytokines in THP-1 monocytic cells

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inflammation, 2021
Human breast milk (HBM) contains many bioactive components that protect infants from various microorganisms. Pattern recognition receptors on phagocytic cells recognize microbial pathogens and promote the innate immune system.

Expression of the Toll-like receptors 2 gene as a genetic determinant of the formation of newborns multiple organ failure syndrome

open access: yesThe Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2019
Activation of the humoral immune response in newborns` multiple organ failure syndrome is associated with the production of interleukin-1β, which is recognized via Toll-like receptors 2 (TLR2).

Only high-affinity receptors for interleukin 2 mediate internalization of ligand.

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1986
Interleukin 2 (IL-2) receptors are expressed on activated T cells and in select T-cell leukemias. Recently, it has been demonstrated that at least two classes of receptor for IL-2 exist with markedly different affinities for ligand.

Interleukin 2 binding molecule distinct from the Tac protein: analysis of its role in formation of high-affinity receptors.

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1987
Interleukin 2 (IL-2) receptors on activated T cells exist in high- and low-affinity configurations, both of which share a ligand-binding component known as the Tac protein. Although almost all binding of IL-2 to such cells was inhibited by an antibody to

Autophagy in cancer and protein conformational disorders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Autophagy plays a crucial role in numerous biological processes, including protein and organelle quality control, development, immunity, and metabolism. Hence, dysregulation or mutations in autophagy‐related genes have been implicated in a wide range of human diseases.

Regulation of interleukin 2 receptors on T cells from multiple sclerosis patients.

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1986
Receptors for interleukin 2 (IL-2) are absent on resting T lymphocytes and are induced by antigenic and mitogenic stimulation. After a limited time (8-12 days), these receptors on normal T cells are down-regulated despite the presence of receptor ...

B cell mechanobiology in health and disease: emerging techniques and insights into therapeutic responses

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

Common and pre-B acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells express interleukin 2 receptors, and interleukin 2 stimulates in vitro colony formation.

open access: yesBlood, 1985
The role of interleukin 2 (IL 2) as a possible regulator of in vitro proliferation and differentiation of non-T acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cells was investigated.
