چکیده

We studied the anti-tumor effect of control human lymphocytes and interleukin-2 (IL-2) activated lymphocytes (lymphokine activated killer cells, LAK-cells), on two different cell lines: SW742 human colon adenocarcinoma and K562 human myeloid leukaemia cell line. Our results indicate that IL-2 augment the anti-tumor activity of human lymphocytes and these LAK-cells lyse the tumor cells very efficiently. Furthermore, we treated the target cells (SW742 and K562) with different cytokines in order to establish whether these cytokines have any effect on susceptibility to lysis by LAK-cells. Anti-tumor activity of human lymphocytes and IL-2 is discussed in this study.

The Effect of Human Recombinant Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor-2 on Reducing Inflammatory of Collagen -Induced Arthritis in Balb/c Mice

Background: The tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) is a cytokine that produced principally by monocyte/macrophages and T lymphocytes, respectively. TNFα is recognized as the primary mediator of immunity in inflammation reaction.  One important application of Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor 2 (TNFR2) is for the treatment of autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis (RA).<br /...

A Survey on the Role of Interleukin-10 in Breast Cancer: A Narrative

Interleukin (IL)-10, a multifunctional immune-regulatory cytokine with both immunosuppressive and anti-angiogenic functions, is produced by immune cells including macrophages, T lymphocytes, and natural killer cells. Among other effects, IL-10 promotes tumor cell proliferation and metastasis via immunosuppression. Interleukin-10-mediated immunosuppression is aided by synthesis of tumor necrosis...
