Interleukin 2 (IL-2) augments transcription of the IL-2 receptor gene.
We demonstrate that purified interleukin 2 (IL-2) can directly upregulate IL-2 receptor expression on phytohemagglutinin-activated T lymphocytes maintained in culture until IL-2 receptor expression had markedly declined. The IL-2-induced increase in IL-2 receptor number is maximal within 12 hr, requires new RNA and protein synthesis, and is mediated by an interaction of ligand with the high-aff...
متن کاملIL 6 ( interleukin 6 ( interferon beta 2 ) )
Note: G/C polymorphism at nucleotide -174 (promoter region) Breast cancer prognosis differs between populations. Despite its lower incidence in Blacks when compared to Caucasians, mortality among the former is higher. Genetic factors involved in the molecular pathways regulating tumor development have been adduced to explain these differences, and it has been suggested that the IL-6 gene is a s...
متن کاملCellular expression of interleukin 2 (IL-2) and its receptor (IL-2R, CD25) in lung tumours.
In view of the unclear prognostic and diagnostic role of interleukin 2 (IL-2) and its receptor in human tumours, we examined the cellular expression of IL-2 and of the subunit alpha of its receptor (IL-2Ralpha, CD25) in relation to the proliferative activity of various subtypes of lung tumours. The immunocytochemical ABC technique was applied to archival tissue material of neuroendocrine lung t...
متن کاملSevere combined immunodeficiency, interleukin-2 (IL-2), and the IL-2 receptor: experiments of nature continue to point the way.
The recent discovery of molecular defects in three forms of X-linked immunodeficiency has quickly transformed the study of immunodeficiency into one of the most exciting in basic and clinical immunology. The identification of defects in the IL-2R gamma chain in the etiology of X-linked SCID has suggested a heretofore unanticipated functional role of the gamma chain in immunologic development. W...
متن کاملProduction of Interleukin-2 (IL-2) and Expression of IL-2 Receptor in Patients with IgA Nephropathy
BACKGROUND IL-2 production has been measured in several disease including type I diabetes mellitus, systemic lupus erythematosus, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and active pulmonary sarcoidosis and its pathogenetic role was suggested. In IgA nephropathy, altered T cell subsets were reported to be associated with increased synthesis of IgA. The altered IL-2 production and the expression of I...
