The soluble
AbstractThe pleiotropic cytokine interleukin‐2 (IL‐2) is an integral regulator of healthy and pathological immune responses, with the most important role in regulating the homeostasis of regulatory T cells. IL‐2 signalling involves three distinct receptors: The IL‐2 receptor α (IL‐2Rα/CD25), IL‐2Rβ, and IL‐2Rγ/γc.

Soluble IL-2 receptor in rheumatoid arthritis. Correlation with disease activity, IL-1 and IL-2 inhibition. [PDF]
Abstract An ELISA was used to measure soluble IL-2R (sIL-2R) in the sera and synovial fluids of patients with rheumatic diseases. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis had raised levels of sIL-2R both in their sera and in their synovial fluid compared to patients with osteoarthritis and age-matched healthy controls.

Soluble IL-2 receptor levels in patients with Graves'ophthalmopathy
SUMMARYIn various autoimmune diseases circulating levels of soluble 1L-2 receptor (sIL-2R) seem to be related to disease activity. Because reliable parameters of disease activity in Graves' ophthalmopathy are lacking, we measured sIL-2R levels in 47 patients with this disorder, The patients had Graves' disease, but no other immune-mediated diseases ...
