Detection of IL‑2 in Human PBMCs by Flow Cytometry. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) treated with Cell Activation Cocktail 500x (Catalog # 5476) for 5 hours were stained with (A) Mouse Anti-Human IL-2 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB2023) or (B) Mouse IgG1 isotype control antibody (Catalog # MAB002) followed by Anti-Mouse IgG APC-conjugated Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0101B) and Mouse anti-Human CD3 PE-conjugated Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # FAB100P). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed and permeabilized using FlowX FoxP3/Transcription Factor Fixation & Perm Buffer Kit (Catalog # FC012).

Background: IL-2

Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is a cytokine that stimulates the growth and differentiation of B cells, T cells, NK cells, and monocyte/macrophages. It functions through the heterotrimeric IL-2 receptor comprising alpha, beta, and gamma chains.
