To investigate whether soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-~R), a marker of T cell activation, could be a useful marker of disease activity in Wegener's granulomatosis (WG). Methods. Soluble IL-2R levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. WG disease activity in 102 patients was a
Soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) was measured in the plasma of 31 patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) and 22 normal controls. When thrombocytopenia persisted longer than 6 months, the diagnosis of chronic ITP was made. Twenty patients had acute ITP, 11 patients had chronic
