Interleukin 7 is a T-cell growth factor.
Interleukin 7 (IL-7) is a 25-kDa cytokine which was purified and its corresponding cDNA was cloned based upon its ability to stimulate the proliferation of pre-B cells. It has been shown that IL-7 can also function as a costimulator with Con A for the proliferation of T lymphocytes by inducing the production of interleukin 2 (IL-2). We demonstrate here that IL-7 in combination with phorbol 12-m...
متن کاملInterleukin 3 is a growth factor for human follicular B cell lymphoma
More than one-half of adults with non-Hodgkin's B cell lymphomas present with low-grade follicular lymphomas. These tumor cells are found in close association with follicular T lymphocytes and dendritic cells, suggesting that the surrounding cells may play a role in the support of follicular tumors. Supernatants from activated human peripheral blood lymphocytes were found to promote the in vitr...
متن کاملCytotoxic lymphocyte maturation factor (interleukin 12) is a synergistic growth factor for hematopoietic stem cells
The recently cloned cytotoxic lymphocyte maturation factor (interleukin 12 [IL-12]) has been described as a growth factor for mature lymphocytes. The present study investigated whether purified recombinant murine IL-12 (rMuIL-12) also could affect the proliferation of primitive bone marrow progenitor cells. Using a population of Lin-Sca-1+ murine bone marrow stem cells, we now demonstrate that ...
متن کاملInterleukin-10 is an autocrine growth factor for acquired immunodeficiency syndrome-related B-cell lymphoma.
Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is an acid-sensitive protein of 35 kD that has pleiotropic effects including inhibition of cytotoxic T-cell response, induction of major histocompatibility complex type II in B lymphocytes, induction of B-cell growth and differentiation, and autocrine growth factor activity in monocytes. We and others have shown that IL-10 is produced spontaneously by blood mononuclear ce...
متن کاملInterleukin-7 is a survival factor for CD4+ CD25+ T-cells and is expressed by diabetes-suppressive dendritic cells.
Dendritic cells can facilitate allograft survival and prevent autoimmunity via direct and indirect cell-mediated mechanisms. Recent studies demonstrate that immunoregulatory dendritic cells (iDCs) confer immune hyporesponsiveness in part through CD4(+) CD25(+) T regulatory cells (Tregs). Herein, we provide evidence to support the hypothesis that dendritic cells derived from NOD mice and enginee...
