The main methods for the evaluation of natural killer (NK, CD16+ CD56+) cells, interleukins
and related subsets of lymphocytes are briefly described. Moderate endurance exercise …

Using cDNA probes to human interleukin 2 (IL2) and interleukin 2 receptor (IL2R), the
amount of IL2 and IL2R mRNA produced by PHA stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear …

Diabetes susceptibility in non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice may entail faulty activation of
immunoregulatory cells resulting from cytokine deficiencies. Depletion of T cells prevents …

Although several workers have described numerous changes affecting the hemopoietic
system during senescence, the existence of univocal “hematological disease” closely …

In this report we demonstrate that thymosin alpha 1 (Tα 1), a synthetic peptide composed of
28 amino acid residues, and thymosin fraction 5 (TF5) enhance the number of high affinity …

Food restriction is known to modulate aging and age-associated immune functions in
rodents. In an attempt to understand the mechanism (s) through which food restriction delay …

Lymph node cell populations derived from Trypanosoma brucei‐infected mice fail to
produce interleukin 2 (IL 2) in response to a potent mitogenic trigger and suppress the …

Serum concentrations of receptor for the T cell growth factor interleukin 2 (IL-2R) were
compared to the capacity of activated T cells to express surface IL-2R in patients with major …

The aim of this chapter is to give a comprehensive overview of the well-characterized
surface molecules of human leukocytes. There are, of course, a number of detailed reviews …

This study examines the relationship between the capacity for interleukin-2 (IL2) production
and the magnitude of the in vitro and in vivo secretion of IL2Rα in 43 patients with major …
