Comparison of the biological properties of purified natural and recombinant human interleukin-2. 1985

K Naruo, and S Hinuma, and K Kato, and M Koyama, and H Tada, and O Shiho, and K Tsukamoto

We compared the biological properties of the purified recombinant human IL-2 derived from E. coli with those of purified natural IL-2. Both had almost the same specific in vitro activities on a weight basis to support long-term proliferation of IL-2 dependent human peripheral blood lymphocytes, a mouse killer T cell line, and a mouse natural killer cell line; induce killer cells in normal mouse spleen cells; and induce antibody forming cells in nude mouse spleen cells. No differences in these biological activities were found between two forms of natural IL-2 that were separable by reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007376 Interleukin-2 A soluble substance elaborated by antigen- or mitogen-stimulated T-LYMPHOCYTES which induces DNA synthesis in naive lymphocytes.

D007694 Killer Cells, Natural Bone marrow-derived lymphocytes that possess cytotoxic properties, classically directed against transformed and virus-infected cells. Unlike T CELLS; and B CELLS; NK CELLS are not antigen specific. The cytotoxicity of natural killer cells is determined by the collective signaling of an array of inhibitory and stimulatory CELL SURFACE RECEPTORS. A subset of T-LYMPHOCYTES referred to as NATURAL KILLER T CELLS shares some of the properties of this cell type.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
