Interleukin-2 receptor[1]

In Vitro Basiliximab specifically inhibits T lymphocyte proliferation by binding to the IL-2Rα[1]. Basiliximab binds only to activated lymphocytes and macrophages/monocytes[3]. Basiliximab does not affect resting T lymphocytes that do not express IL-2Rα[3].
In Vivo Basiliximab (CHI 621) (0.07 mg/rat; i.v.; once) decreases total placental natural killer cells in reduced uterine perfusion pressure (RUPP) rats[2]. Animal Model: Timed-pregnant Sprague Dawley (SD) rats, reduced uterine perfusion pressure (RUPP) rat model of placental ischemia[2] Dosage: 0.07 mg/rat Administration: IV infusion, once Result: Decreased total placental natural killer cells. Had no effect to lower MAP or improve pup weight and placental weight.
