DInhibition of purine synthesis
Show Answer & Explanation ▾
✓ Correct Answer: A. IL-2 receptor inhibition
IL-2 receptor antagonist The CD-25 molecule is expressed on the surface of immunologically activated, but not resting T-cells. The CD-25 acts as a high affinity receptor for IL-2 through which cell proliferation and differentiation are promoted. Some anti CD-25 antibodies have been developed as IL-2 receptor antagonists to specifically arrest the activated T-cells. Daclizumab: It is a highly humanized chimeric monoclonal anti CD-25 antibody which binds to and acts as IL-2receptor antagonist. Combined with glucocorticoids, calcineurinantagonists and/or azathioprine/MMF, it is used to prevent renal and other transplant rejection reactions. Basiliximab: This is another anti CD-25 antibody with higher affinity for the IL-2 receptor, but shorter plasma t½ (1 week). Clinical use of basiliximab is similar to that of daclizumab.
