  • Title: [Clinical significance of increased serum soluble interleukin-2 receptor levels in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis].
    Author: Chui JJ, Fan P, Li J.
    Journal: Zhonghua Jie He He Hu Xi Za Zhi; 1994 Oct; 17(5):288-90, 318-9. PubMed ID: 7712570.
    Abstract:
    The serum soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) was measured in 40 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis by using sandwich enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The results show that the levels of sIL-2R in sera of the various stage patients are markedly higher than that of the normal controls and the serum levels of sIL-2R were associated significantly with the patients' conditions. These findings suggest that sIL-2R may be an useful referential indicator for diagnosing, monitoring and predicting pulmonary tuberculosis.
