Background Information
CD25 (IL2RA), a type I transmembrane glycoprotein, is expressed on activated T cells, regulatory T cells, and dendritic cells. It binds IL-2 with low affinity on its own, but upon associating with the IL-2 receptor beta (CD122) and common gamma chain (CD132), it forms a high-affinity complex that triggers intracellular signaling pathways like MAPK and JAK/STAT. CD25 is involved in immune regulation and plays a role in autoimmune diseases, including type 1 diabetes. Soluble CD25 (sIL-2Ralpha) is released during immune responses and is a marker for tumor burden in hematological malignancies, including leukemias and lymphomas, as well as some solid tumors like melanoma and carcinomas. The presence of sIL-2Ralpha in circulation reflects tumor activity and is associated with immune modulation in cancer progression.
