About this item
Interleukin-2 (IL-2), which is also known as T-cell growth factor, plays a central role in cell-mediated immune response.
IL-2 is produced by the helper/inducer subset of T-cells when activated by mitogens such as PHA, or by interaction with antigen/MHC complexes on antigen-presenting cells.
Tested for ability to stimulate proliferation of the mouse T-cell line CTLL. Filtered (0.2 µm membrane) and tested and found negative for the presence of bacteria, fungi, and mycoplasma. Tested for endotoxin (LAL assay).
It was first identified by its ability to promote long-term proliferation of activated T-cells.
