In this study, we demonstrate that both highly purified T4+ and T8+ lymphocytes can produce substantial amounts of Interleukin 2(IL 2) when stimulated with the combination of concanavalin A (Con A) and phorbol myristate acetate. Furthermore, addition of IL 1 to macrophage-depleted T lymphocytes significantly increased IL 2 production by lymphocytes of either the T4+ or T8+ phenotype. These findings provide a basis for further studies of the molecular mechanisms involved in human immune cell interactions.
在本研究中,我们证明,当用刀豆球蛋白A(Con A)和佛波酯组合刺激时,高度纯化的T4 +和T8 +淋巴细胞均可产生大量白细胞介素2(IL 2)。此外,向去除巨噬细胞的T淋巴细胞中添加IL 1可显著增加T4 +或T8 +表型淋巴细胞的IL 2产生。这些发现为进一步研究人类免疫细胞相互作用所涉及的分子机制提供了基础。
