Interleukin-15 (IL-15) is a pleiotropic cytokine with a broad range of biological functions in many diverse cell types. It plays a major role in the development of inflammatory and protective immune responses to microbial invaders and parasites by ...

Interleukin (IL)-15, a member of the immunoregulatory cytokines family, is a pluripotent molecule with therapeutic potential. It is predominantly expressed by the myeloid cells, as well as other cell types. IL-15 serves multiple functions including dictating T cell response, regulating tissue repair …

Interleukin (IL)-15 is essential for natural killer (NK), NKT and memory (m) CD8+ T cell development and function, and is currently under investigation as an immunotherapeutic agent for the treatment of cancer. Recently, the creation of IL-15 ...

Feb 18, 2025 · In April 2024, the FDA approved the interleukin (IL)−15 superagonist, N-803 (Anktiva, nogapendekin alfa inbakicept-pmln), for the treatment of bladder cancer . This is the first cytokine in over 30 years to receive FDA approval for the treatment of cancer, and the culmination of years of preclinical and clinical studies involving both ...

Jan 1, 2001 · IL-15 −/− mice maintained good health when housed under specific pathogen-free conditions; however, they demonstrated a dramatic lethal sensitivity to vaccinia virus infection compared with control mice.8 Because both NK cells and CD8 + T cells are important for protection against vaccinia, failure to mount a protective host response is ...

Jan 8, 2024 · 白细胞介素-15（interleukin -15，IL-15）是一种T细胞生长因子，于1994年被两个独立的实验室发现，与IL-2具有类似的生物学功能。IL-15 主要由单核细胞和巨噬细胞产生。人体多种组织表达 IL-15 mRNA, 如心、肺、肾…

Oct 1, 2016 · IL-15, upon forming the complex with IL-15Rα, signals through βγc receptors, thus activating JAK1 and JAK3 that phosphorylate STAT3 and STAT5, respectively, and resulting in the phosphorylation of the Src-related tyrosine kinases and activation of anti-apoptotic factor Bcl-2.

The cytokine interleukin-15 (IL-15) has a key role in promoting survival, proliferation and activation of natural killer (NK) and CD8+ T cells. Despite its functional similarities to IL-2, IL-15 affects a wider range of target cell populations and utilizes different mechanisms of signaling.

Interleukin (IL)-15 is a ubiquitously expressed cytokine existing in both intracellular and secretory forms. Here we review the expression, regulation, and functions of IL15 and its receptors in the brain.

Interleukin (IL)-15 is a pleiotropic pro-inflammatory cytokine that is expressed in several inflammatory disorders, including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and pulmonary inflammatory diseases. IL-15 promotes activation of T cells, neutrophils and macrophages, and is critical to dendritic cell function in several model systems.
