CC -!- FUNCTION: Produced by T-cells in response to antigenic or CC mitogenic stimulation, this protein is required for T-cell CC proliferation and other activities crucial to regulation of the CC immune response. Can stimulate B-cells, monocytes, lymphokine- CC activated killer cells, natural killer cells, and glioma cells (By CC similarity). CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted protein (By similarity).
