Interleukin-2(IL-2) is an interleukin; a type of cytokine signaling molecule in the immune system;belongs to the IL-2 family. T-cells produce a potent immunoregulatory lymphokine in response to antigenic or mitogenic stimulation. The interleukin-2 (IL-2)/IL-2R signaling pathway is important for T cell proliferation and other critical functions in the immune response. IL-2 stimulates growth and differentiation of B-cells; NK cells; lymphokine-activated killer cells; monocytes; macrophages and oligodendrocytes. The new study discovered that IL-2 mutant has decreased toxicity while achieving a greater anti-tumor effector immune cell response. Interleukin-2/IL-2 Recombinant Protein (Mutant) is a highly pure recombinant protein developed by Assay Genie for use in a range of applications.
