Summary:Under the experimental conditions in vitro the effects of immunoregulatory cytokines (IL-2, IL-7 and IL-15) on the activation, proliferation and apoptosis of different subpopulations of immune memory T-cell (Cd45RO+) were investigated in healthy donors. It was demonstrated that the effects of rlL-2 in vitro equally affect the activation and proliferation of CD4+ and CD8+ subpopulations of memory T cells. It has been shown that high concentrations of rIL-2 lead to an increase in the number of CD8+ memory cells expressing apoptotic molecule CD95. Different effect of rIL-7 and rIL-15 on the activation and proliferation of cytotoxic CD8+ memory ells has been revealed in vitro. CD4+ memory lymphocytes have relative resistance to the activation and proliferative effect of rlL-7 and rlL-15, if compared with the effects of rIL-2, which can provide their relative resistance to the activation apoptosis as well as create the necessary conditions for the accelerated implementation of their functional capacity in the development of a secondary immune response.
