IL-2 also promotes peripheral development of regulatory T cells (Tregs) (3,4). Conversely, IL-2 is involved in the activation-induced cell death (AICD) that is observed post T cell expansion by increasing levels of Fas on CD4 T cells (5). The effects of IL-2 are mediated through a trimeric receptor complex consisting of IL-2RÎ±, IL-2RÎ², and the common gamma chain, Î³c (1,2). IL-2RÎ± binds exclusively to IL-2 with low affinity and increases the binding affinity of the whole receptor complex including IL-2RÎ² and Î³c subunits. IL-15 also binds to IL-2RÎ² (1,2). Î³c is used by other cytokines, including IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, IL-15, and IL-21 (1,2). Binding of IL-2 initiates signaling cascades involving Jak1, Jak3, Stat5, and the PI3K\/Akt pathways (1,2).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nCD122; CD122 antigen; high affinity IL-2 receptor beta subunit; High affinity IL-2 receptor subunit beta; IL-2 receptor subunit beta; IL-2R subunit beta; IL-2RB; IL15RB; IL2RB; IMD63; interleukin 15 receptor, beta; interleukin 2 receptor subunit beta; interleukin 2 receptor, beta; Interleukin-15 receptor subunit beta; Interleukin-2 receptor subunit beta; p70-75; p75\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Transfected Only\nMW (kDa): 60-70\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799492808873,"sku":"4198S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-4198s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
