SERUM SOLUBLE INTERLEUKIN-2 (IL-2) RECEPTOR LEVELS IN PATIENTS WITH LATE SCHISTOSOMIASIS JAPONICA / 中国血吸虫病防治杂志

ABSTRACT

The survey of the soluble IL-2 receptor (sIL-2R) level in the sera and the membrane IL-2 receptor (mIL-2R) expression on the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 47 cases of late schistosomiasis japonica was reported. The measurement for sIL-2R was done with the double antibody sandwich ELISA. Indirect immunflurescence was performed in the measurement for mIL-2R. The levels of sIL-2R in sera from 47 patients with late schistoso-miasis was found to be higher than that in control (P
