The interleukin-2 receptor alpha chain (also called Tac antigen, P55, and mainly CD25) is a protein involved in the assembly of the high-affinity interleukin-2 receptor, consisting of alpha (IL2RA), beta and the common gamma chain ().
IL-2 binds to the IL-2 receptor, which has three forms, generated by different combinations of three different proteins, often referred to as "chains": α (alpha) (also called IL-2Rα, CD25, or Tac antigen), β (beta) (also called IL-2Rβ, or CD122), and γ (gamma) (also called IL-2Rγ, γ c, common gamma chain, or CD132); these subunits are also parts of receptors for other cytokines.
In addition to IPEX-like symptoms, CD25 deficiency increases susceptibility to viral infections [1] and possibly fungal and bacterial infections. As IL-2 is an important inducer of lymphocyte proliferation , the absence of highly sensitive IL-2 receptors may also significantly hinder activation and clonal expansion of CD8+ and CD4+ lymphocytes ...

In humans, ILC2s express CRTH2, KLRG1, SST2, CD161, and CD25. [3] In mice, ILC2s express CD44, but not CD161. [3] ILC2s require IL-7 for their development, activating the fundamental transcription factors RORα and GATA3. GATA3 is also required for maintenance of ILC2 function, with GATA3 deprivation inhibiting the development and function of ...
The interleukin 2 receptor, which is involved in T cell-mediated immune responses, is present in 3 forms with respect to ability to bind interleukin 2.The low affinity form is a monomer of the alpha subunit (also called CD25) and is not involved in signal transduction.
A new study has found following an “early” time-restricted pattern where fasting runs from about 5:30 pm until about 10 a.m. the next morning helps improve blood sugar regulation and reduce ...
All T cells derive from progenitor cells in the bone marrow, which become committed to their lineage in the thymus.All T cells begin as CD4-CD8-TCR- cells at the DN (double-negative) stage, where an individual cell will rearrange its T cell receptor genes to form a unique, functional molecule, which they, in turn, test against cells in the thymic cortex for a minimal level of interaction with ...
