Recombinant Human Interleukin-2 (rhIL-2)
Expressed in CHO mammalian cells, glycosylated and non-glycosylated
Immunservice’s recombinant human Interleukin-2 (rhIL-2) is a secreted cytokine consisting of a mixture of three isoforms (a glycosylated tetrasaccharide, a glycosylated trisaccharide and a non-glycosylated isoform) with a molecular weight of approximately 17 kDa. This composition very strongly resembles naturally occurring IL-2 and is particularly stable.
Interleukin-2 plays a key role in proliferation of T and B lymphocytes and stimulates differentiation of B cells, NK cells, lymphokine-activated killer cells, monocytes, macrophages and oligodendrocytes.

Areas of Application
Recombinant Human IL-2 is a bioactive protein and can be used as a nutrient source for culture of IL-2-dependent cells as well as for activation of immune cells. rhIL-2 stimulates proliferation of T cells and regulates the immune response.
rhIL-2 was tested in cell culture and can be used, for instance, for the follow applications:

rhIL-2 was tested in cell culture and can be used, for instance, for the follow applications:
- Culture of human and murine IL-2-dependent primary T cells, T cell lines and NK cells
- Proliferation of mitogen-activated T lymphocytes and NK cells
- Generation of human and murine T cell lines derived from thymocytes, splenocytes or peripheral blood lymphocytes
- Generation of human and murine LAK cells
Storage
rhIL-2 should be stored at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing. If stored accordingly, this recombinant human interleukin-2 is stable for 12 months.
