Antitumor effects of new-type recombinant interleukin-2 %K %X Two new human recombinant interleukin-2 (rIL-2), 125-Ser-rIL-2, and 125-Ala-rIL-2, were generated by protein engineering technique. Both of them maintained the proliferation of natural killer (NK) cells, CTLL-2 cells and their long-term propagations. The mutated new rIL-2 also enhanced the bioactivity of NK cells and the cytotoxicity of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) against the target tumor cells. The above results were all compared with that of the native rIL-2 and a similarity between them was found, which indicates that new type rIL-2 could be used for adoptive immunotherapy of malignant diseases. %U http://www.chinaphar.com/article/view/6272 %V 13 %N 5 %P 435-438 %@ 1745-7254
