Interleukin 2 receptor-targeted cytotoxicity. Interleukin 2 receptor- mediated action of a diphtheria toxin-related interleukin 2 fusion protein
The IL-2 toxin-mediated inhibition of protein synthesis in high affinity IL-2-R-positive murine and human T cell lines has been examined. Both excess free IL-2 and mAb to the Tac epitope of the p55 subunit of IL-2-R are shown to block the action of IL-2 toxin; whereas, agents that interact with other receptors or antigens on the T cell surface have no effect. We show that IL-2 toxin, like dipht...
متن کاملAdvances in interleukin 2 receptor targeted treatment.
T cell activation and cellular immune responses are modulated by interleukin 2 (IL2) through binding to its corresponding cell surface receptor. Three forms of the receptor are recognised based on IL2 binding affinity. The high affinity receptor is a heterotrimer composed of alpha, beta, and gamma(c)-polypeptide chains. The 55 kDa alpha-chain also known as the Tac (T cell activation) antigen or...
متن کاملInterleukin 2-diphtheria toxin fusion protein can abolish cell-mediated immunity in vivo.
De novo expression of the interleukin 2 receptor (IL-2R) is a critical and pivotal event in initiation of an immune response. Targeting the low-affinity IL-2-binding p55 subunit of the high-affinity IL-2R with the rat anti-mouse IgM monoclonal antibody M7/20 suppresses a variety of T-cell-mediated reactions, including transplant rejection, autoimmunity, and delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH). ...
متن کاملThe interleukin-2 receptor.
The human body defends itself against foreign invaders such as bacteria and viruses by a defense system that involves antibodies and thymus-derived lymphocytes (T cells). A major advance over the past decade has been the demonstration that the diverse cells within the immunological network communicate with each other not only by cell/cell contact but also by an array of hormone-like proteins te...
متن کاملThe human interleukin-2 receptor.
Complementary DNAs corresponding to the human receptor for interleukin-2 (IL-2) have been molecularly cloned, sequenced, and expressed in both COS-1 and L cells. The human genome appears to contain a single structural gene for this receptor located on the short arm of chromosome 10 (band 14-15). However, when transcribed, at least two families of mRNAs are produced, which vary in length due to ...
