Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-IL-2 antibody [EPR2780] - BSA and Azide free (AB216453)

This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab92381). Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence analysis of PBMC (Human primary peripheral blood mononuclear cell) cells labeling IL-2 using ab92381. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde then permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100. The cells were then incubated with ab92381 at 1 : 50 dilution followed by a further incubation with a Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488, ab150077) at 2 μg/ml (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled in blue with DAPI. Cells were counterstained using ab195889 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594) at 1 : 200 dilution (shown in red). Secondary antibody only control : PBS instead of the primary antibody.

Target data

Cytokine produced by activated CD4-positive helper T-cells and to a lesser extend activated CD8-positive T-cells and natural killer (NK) cells that plays pivotal roles in the immune response and tolerance (PubMed : 6438535). Binds to a receptor complex composed of either the high-affinity trimeric IL-2R (IL2RA/CD25, IL2RB/CD122 and IL2RG/CD132) or the low-affinity dimeric IL-2R (IL2RB and IL2RG) (PubMed : 16293754, PubMed : 16477002). Interaction with the receptor leads to oligomerization and conformation changes in the IL-2R subunits resulting in downstream signaling starting with phosphorylation of JAK1 and JAK3 (PubMed : 7973659). In turn, JAK1 and JAK3 phosphorylate the receptor to form a docking site leading to the phosphorylation of several substrates including STAT5 (PubMed : 8580378). This process leads to activation of several pathways including STAT, phosphoinositide-3-kinase/PI3K and mitogen-activated protein kinase/MAPK pathways (PubMed : 25142963). Functions as a T-cell growth factor and can increase NK-cell cytolytic activity as well (PubMed : 6608729). Promotes strong proliferation of activated B-cells and subsequently immunoglobulin production (PubMed : 6438535). Plays a pivotal role in regulating the adaptive immune system by controlling the survival and proliferation of regulatory T-cells, which are required for the maintenance of immune tolerance. Moreover, participates in the differentiation and homeostasis of effector T-cell subsets, including Th1, Th2, Th17 as well as memory CD8-positive T-cells.
