## Abstract Interleukin (IL)‐10 plays crucial regulatory roles in immune responses by inhibiting the secretion of several cytokines (IL‐2, IL‐12, interferon‐gamma (IFN‐γ)) and lymphocyte proliferation. Iron deficiency, a public health problem for children, alters these immune responses. To determin
## Abstract Partially purified interleukin 2 (IL‐2) promotes proliferation of mouse spleen T, but not B cells, and of peanut‐agglutinin‐negative (PNA^−^), and cortisone‐resistant “mature” thymocytes, but not of PNA^+^ “immature” thymocytes. Within the cortisone‐resistant thymocyte population, IL‐2‐
The interaction of CD28 and its ligands (CD80, CD86) on antigen presenting cells and that of TCR/CD3-MHC are required for T lymphocyte activation. To determine whether impaired lymphocyte proliferation associated with iron deficiency is due to reduced expression of these ligands, spleen cells obtain
