Novel Antibodies Targeting IL-2
TS-066051 — Novel antibodies targeting IL-2 with the ability to inhibit IL-2 signaling through IL-2 Rαβg to a greater extent than through IL-2 Rβg.
IL-2 and its receptor IL-2R are known to play multiple roles in shaping the immune response, including both immune activation and tolerance. Expression of intermediate-affinity IL-2 receptors by different immune cell subsets determines cellular sensitivity to IL-2. However, the dynamic interplay bet…
