Low-Zone IL-2 Signaling: Fusion Proteins Containing Linked CD25 and IL-2 Domains Sustain Tolerogenic Vaccination in vivo and Promote Dominance of FOXP3+ Tregs in vitro

Low-zone IL-2 signaling is key to understanding how CD4+ CD25high FOXP3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) exhibit dominance and overgrow conventional effector T cells (Tcons) that typically express lower levels of the IL-2 receptor alpha chain (i.e., CD25). Thus, modalities such as low-dose IL-2 or IL-2/a...
