Interleukin‐1α, interleukin‐2, and soluble interleukin‐2 receptors in polymyositis [PDF]
AbstractCell‐mediated immunity has been implicated in the pathogenesis of polymyositis (PM). We conducted a prospective study in which serum levels of soluble interleukin‐2 receptors (IL‐2R), IL‐1α, and IL‐2 were correlated with creatine kinase (CK) levels and clinical disease activity.

Soluble interleukin-2 receptors in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma [PDF]
The authors performed a retrospective analysis of serum soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) levels in 72 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) using an enzyme immunoassay. Their objectives were to determine the value of serum sIL-2R in estimating the tumor burden, and its predictive value in response to therapy and prognosis. The data showed

IL-15 augments TCR-induced CD4⁺ T cell expansion in vitro by inhibiting the suppressive function of CD25High CD4⁺ T cells [PDF]
Due to its critical role in NK cell differentiation and CD8(+) T cell homeostasis, the importance of IL-15 is more firmly established for cytolytic effectors of the immune system than for CD4(+) T cells. The increased levels of IL-15 found in several CD4(
