pubmed:abstractText |
The concomitant activation of macrophage-mediated immunosuppressive events might represent one of the most important biologic factors responsible for the decreased efficacy of cancer immunotherapies, including that of interleukin (IL)-2. In previous studies, the authors observed that the increase in the soluble IL-2 receptor (SIL-2R) and neopterin levels was related to the generation of macrophage-mediated immunosuppression and associated with a reduced clinical efficacy during IL-2 cancer immunotherapy. Because both cytokines and neurohormones may influence the macrophage system, the current study was done to evaluate the effects of IL-3 and of the pineal hormone melatonin (MLT) on monocyte response to IL-2 administration.
