IL-2 is a member of a family of cytokines, which also includes IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, IL-15 and IL-21.
All members of this family signal through a receptor complex that includes the common G chain (?c).
IL-2 signals through a receptor complex consisting of IL-2 specific IL-2 receptor A (CD25), IL-2 receptor B (CD122) and the common G chain (?c).
The main function of IL-2 is to promote the development of T regulatory cells.
IL-2 is produced by several cell types including, B cells, ?d T cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and eosinophils.
It has been found to be similar to IL-15 in terms of function.
Both IL-2 and IL-15 are able to facilitate production of immunoglobulins made by B cells and induce the differentiation and proliferation of natural killer cells.
The primary differences between IL-2 and IL-15 are found in adaptive immune responses: IL-2 participates in maintenance of T-Regs and reduces self-reactive T cells while IL-15 is necessary for maintaining highly specific T cell responses by supporting survival of CD8 memory T cells.
