1 Addition of monocytes to highly purified T cells stimulated with ionomycin resulted in partial reconstitution of IL-2 production, IL-2R expression and proliferation. Ionomycin interleukin 2 Homo sapiens
2 Similarly, the addition of exogenous IL-2 to ionomycin-stimulated T cells only partially reconstituted the response compared with PBMC. Ionomycin interleukin 2 Homo sapiens
3 With ionomycin, monocytes play a role, in part, in inducing IL-2 production, IL-2R expression and proliferation. Ionomycin interleukin 2 Homo sapiens
4 However, IL-2 is not a sufficient signal to induce T-cell proliferative response to ionomycin, suggesting that an IL-2-independent mechanism may exist in ionomycin-induced T-cell proliferation. Ionomycin interleukin 2 Homo sapiens
