General description

The antibody neutralizes the biological activity of recombinant mouse interleukin-2, but not human interleukin-2.

Immunogen

recombinant mouse interleukin-2 expressed in Escherichia coli.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is a cytokine produced by activated T cells in response to antigen stimulation. The effects of IL-2 are mediated by the signaling activated by its binding to IL-2 receptor (IL-2 R). IL-2 activates key signaling pathways such as MAPK, JAK/STAT as well as PI3K/Akt. Activation of these pathways modulates production of inflammatory cytokines, survival and progression through cell cycle.

Physical form

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in phosphate buffered saline with 5% trehalose.

Preparation Note

Purified using protein G.

Advances in immunology, 70, 1-81 (1998-10-02)
Studies of the biology of the IL-2 receptor have played a major part in establishing several of the fundamental principles that govern our current understanding of immunology. Chief among these is the contribution made by lymphokines to regulation of the

Interleukin-2 (IL-2) has multiple, sometimes opposing, functions during an inflammatory response. It is a potent inducer of T-cell proliferation and T-helper 1 (Th1) and Th2 effector T-cell differentiation and provides T cells with a long-lasting competitive advantage resulting in the

Immunity, 26(3), 371-381 (2007-03-17)
Recent work has identified a new subset of effector T cells that produces interleukin (IL)-17 known as T helper 17 (Th17) cells, which is involved in the pathophysiology of inflammatory diseases and is thought to be developmentally related to regulatory
