We have shown in a murine model system for cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease in the immunocompromised host that in vivo application of recombinant human IL-2 (rhIL-2) can enhance the antiviral effect of a limited number of CD8+T lymphocytes, not only in prophylaxis, but also in therapy, when virus has already colonized host tissues. The observed net effect of IL-2 was consistent with the assumption of daily effector population doublings. The prospects for IL-2-supported immunotherapy of established CMV infection depend upon the tissues involved in disease. It appears that the prospects for controlling established CMV adrenalitis are less promising than for a therapy of interstitial CMV pneumonia.
我们已经在免疫功能低下宿主的巨细胞病毒(CMV)病小鼠模型系统中表明,在体内应用重组人白细胞介素-2(rhIL-2)不仅在预防方面,而且在病毒已经定植于宿主组织时的治疗方面,都可以增强有限数量的CD8 + T淋巴细胞的抗病毒作用。观察到的IL-2的净效应与每日效应细胞群体倍增的假设一致。IL-2支持的已确诊CMV感染免疫疗法的前景取决于疾病所涉及的组织。看来,控制已确诊的CMV肾上腺炎的前景不如间质性CMV肺炎的治疗前景乐观。
