Preferred Label : IL2 Signaling Pathway;
NCIt related terms : IL 2 signaling pathway;
Alternative definition : BIOCARTA: Interleukin 2 (IL-2) is a potent cytokine that can lead to cellular activation
and proliferation. IL-2 receptors are found on activated B-cells, LPS treated monocytes,
and many T-cells. The receptor is formed from three chains, alpha (CD25), beta (CD122),
and gamma (CD132). Primary signaling is through the JAK/Stat pathway and MAPKs. (This
