Description | IL-2 is a T cell stimulatory cytokine best known for inducing T cell proliferation and NK cell proliferation and activation (1, 2). IL-2 also promotes peripheral development of Treg cells (4, 5). Conversely, IL-2 is involved in activation induced cell death (AICD) that is observed post T cell expansion by increasing levels of Fas on CD4+ T cells (3). The effects of IL-2 are mediated through a trimeric receptor complex consisting of IL-2Ralpha, IL-2Rbeta and the common gamma chain, gamma c (1, 2). IL-2 Ralpha binds exclusively to IL-2 with low affinity and increases binding affinity of the whole receptor complex including IL-2Rbeta and gamma c subunits. IL-2Rbeta is also used by IL-15 (1, 2). The common gamma c is used by other cytokines inc |
