Soluble interleukin-2 receptor in patients with glomerular diseases [PDF]

open access: yesPostgraduate Medical Journal, 1995
AbstractIn this study, we measured the soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) level to evaluate the cellular immune status in 61 patients with different types of glomerular diseases; 40 healthy volunteers were used as control. All patients with glomerular diseases had levels of serum sIL-2R significantly higher than those of the controls (766 +/- 59 ...

Structural truncation of IL-1R2 enhances the anti-inflammatory activity of HeLa cells

open access: yesCell Structure and Function
Interleukin-1 receptor type 2 (IL-1R2) functions as a decoy receptor that suppresses IL-1-induced inflammatory signaling. Both membrane-bound IL-1R2 (WT IL-1R2) and its soluble form (sIL-1R2) bind interleukin-1α (IL-1α) at the cell surface or in the ...
