Non-canonical IL-2 signaling facilitates peripheral regulatory T cell differentiation

Non-canonical IL-2 signaling, termed Monoclonal antibody or Matrix-directed Alternative Cytokine Signaling (MACS), is mediated by a CD25-chemokine receptor complex and operates in concert with the canonical JAK-STAT5 pathway; however, its role in T cell homeostasis remains poorly defined. Here, we uncover a role for MACS in regulatory T cell (Treg) differentiation and functional specification. We…
