Interleukin-2 in autologous bone marrow transplantation
Interleukin-2 results in the generation of lymphokine activated killer cells which exhibit a potent effect against a wide variety of tumours. Consequently, interleukin-2 therapy has been used to induce a graft versus tumour effect following autologous bone marrow transplantation. Preclinical studies have shown that this results in successful engraftment, and an enhanced reconstitution of the immune system.
