Soluble Interleukin 2 Receptor

The serum of children with untreated hemophagocytic syndromes contains elevated levels (23,600 to 75,200 U/mL) of soluble interleukin-2 receptor (SIL2R) that returns toward normal with clinical improvement. These levels are in excess of levels previously reported for benign conditions. They are as high as levels reported for HTLV-1-associated adult T-cell leukemia (HATL) and hairy cell leukemia (HCL) in adults and some children with poor-prognosis non-T, non-B, acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Serum SIL-2R is a marker of disease activity that has the potential to identify infants at risk for the inherited form of the disease before the disease is clinically expressed.

Soluble Interleukin 2 Receptor

We treated 19 patients with hairy cell leukemia (HCL) with 2-chlorodeoxyadenosine. 15 patients followed up at least 6 months were evaluated. The follow up period varied between 6 months and 37 months (median, 19 months). 8 patients were previously treated. The overall response in 15 evaluable HCL patients was 100 %, with 87 % complete hematological remissions including three patients with retroperitoneal and mediastinal lymphadenopathy and one patient with leukemic infiltrates of the cornea; 13 % of patients achieved partial hematological remission. Soluble interleukin - 2 receptor (sIL-2R) considered as a reliable non-invasive marker of HCL tumor burden dropped from the median of 1350 pM/ml (range 188 to 9000 pM/ml) to the median of 84.3 pM/ml (range 37 to 382 pM/ml) RdW which reflects the anisocytosis of red cells decreased after therapy from the median of 20.6 % (range 13.1-25.0 %) to the median of 13.7 % (range 12.4-16.3 %).

Recombinant Interferon

Abstract Activated T cells synthesize and express a cell membrane-bound receptor for interleukin-2 (IL-2) and have recently been shown to secrete a soluble form of the same receptor. Hairy cell leukemia is a chronic disorder caused by expansion of a clonal population of an unusual mononuclear cell of B cell origin. These cells have previously been shown to express an IL-2 receptor on the cell membrane. The sera of 26 patients with hairy cell leukemia were examined for the presence of a soluble IL-2 receptor before and during therapy with either recombinant interferon alpha-2a or 2′-deoxycoformycin. Before therapy, all patients had markedly elevated levels of this soluble IL-2 receptor ranging from five to 60 times the highest level observed in normal control sera. In individual patients changes in the level during therapy correlated well with clinical assessments of tumor response; levels fell to near the normal range in patients responding to therapy. Patients not responding to interferon alpha had no significant change in the soluble IL-2 receptor level. These results suggest that hairy cells secrete a soluble IL-2 receptor and that serial measurements of the level of this receptor in the serum can be used as a noninvasive means to assess disease response to therapy.

Killer Activity

Abstract We studied the action of alpha-interferon (IFN) and interleukin-2 (IL- 2) on natural killer (NK)-rich fractions and autologous tumor cells from two patients with hairy cell leukemia (HCL). The addition of IFN or IL-2 to the NK-rich fractions resulted in a significant increase in NK activity against the autologous tumor cells. This stimulatory effect was blocked if the target hairy cells (HCs) were preincubated with either IFN or IL-2. Pretreatment of the HCs with anti-Tac antibody entirely prevented the blocking effect of IL-2 and partially the blocking effect of IFN. One patient was treated with recombinant alpha c-IFN. After 2 months there was a dramatic reduction in the number of HCs in the peripheral blood coincident with the loss of the protection effect of IFN against NK lysis of the patient's HCs. NK activity against autologous tumor cells correlated poorly with that against the K562 cell line. We conclude that there is a discordant effect of IFN and IL-2 on NK activity and HC sensitivity to lysis. The Tac receptor appears to play a role in this sensitivity. Caution should be exercised in extrapolating the effects of NK activity against K562 cells to those on HC targets.
