Activation of T-lymphocytes by antigen, mitogenic lectins, or antibodies against the T-cell receptor complex, particularly in the presence of IL1, induces the secretion ofthe T-cell growth factor IL2. IL2 then has a major role in regulating the duration and magnitude of the immune response. Interact

✦ Synopsis
Whole blood assays that allow simultaneous performance of IL-1 and IL-2 production as well as lymphocyte mitogen responsiveness are described. The advantages to these techniques are: (1) small volume of sample required (1 mi of whole blood or less), (2) time required to perform the assays (1 0 min), and (3) use of whole blood rather than isolated cells in the evaluation of immune competency which is more reflective of the in vivo condition. The techniques described lend themselves to application in the clinical setting.
