Biochem/physiol Actions

Interleukin-2 is an immunomodulatory factor produced by certain subsets of T lymphocytes. This lympho­kine promotes long term growth of activated T cells and related cell types. Interleukin-2 plays a role in the activation and proliferation of NK cells, induces γ-inter­feron and B cell growth factor secretion, and modulates the expression of the IL-2 receptor.

Physical form

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in phosphate buffered saline containing 1 mg bovine serum albumin

Preparation Note

Purified from a conditioned medium of a rat splenocyte culture stimulated by concanavalin A.

Other Notes

One unit is the amount required to induce half-maximal incorporation of 3H-thymidine into IL-2-dependent cytolytic T cell lymphocytes.
