Abstract excerpt
Interleukin-2 (IL-2) controls the homeostasis and function of regulatory T (Treg) cells, and defects in the IL-2 pathway contribute to multiple autoimmune diseases. Although recombinant IL-2 therapy has been efficacious in certain inflammatory conditions, the capacity for IL-2 to also activate inflammatory effector responses highlights the need for IL-2-based therapeutics with improved Treg cell specificity.
