Interleukin-2 activates the gamma-interferon gene in newborn mice.

abstract：:Numerous studies have associated carriage of HLA-DRB1*1501, DQA1*0102 and DQB1*0602 (DR15, DQ6) with dominant resistance to type 1 diabetes and have concluded that one or more of the component HLA class II molecules mediate this effect. Mechanisms for MHC class II-mediated resistance to diabetes have been proposed fro...
