Gene Information

Application

Tyrphostin AG has been used to block IL-6 cytokine signaling to study its effects on glial cell reactivity5. AG 490 has also been used as a JAK2 inhibitor in human umbilical vein endothelial cells6.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Jak-2 protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) inhibitor. Inhibits interleukin 2 (IL-2) driven mitogenesis and triggers apoptosis of tumor cells in Sezary syndrome, a leukemic variant of cutaneous T cell lymphoma.

Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is a growth factor which upon binding to high-affinity receptors (IL-2Ralphabetagamma) triggers mitogenesis in T cells. IL-2Ralpha expression is restricted to T cells which have recently encountered antigen, and in healthy individuals the majority (>95%) of peripheral T
