Interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R), which regulates normal immune function 1 and is involved in signal transduction, cell growth and survival 2 , is composed of CD25, CD122, and CD132 3 . CD25 is the alpha-chain of IL-2R 2 and its expression is upregulated in resting T cells after activation, which in turn increases the binding capacity of IL-2 and positively affects signaling for T cell proliferation and survival 4. Daclizumab prevents the formation of the heterotrimeric IL-2R and selectively blocks IL-2R-mediated signaling 3 . By masking the IL-2 binding site on IL-2R, daclizumab inhibits T cell activation and proliferation as well as prevents IL-2 from stimulating Tregs to induce apoptosis in effector T cells 4. Additionally, daclizumab can remove CD25 from the surfaces of T cells via monocyte-dependent trogocytosis (defined as the active transfer of plasma membrane fragments between two live cells triggered by interaction between a cognate antigen on one cell and an antigen receptor signaling pathway on another cell) 3 . Daclizumab also inhibits activation and proliferation of T cells by blocking dendritic cells from presenting IL-2 to resting T cells 4 . Daclizumab reduces T cell CD25 levels via a mechanism that requires Fc domain interaction with FcR on monocytes, but not on natural killer cells 3 . Blocking IL-2 from binding to T cells leads to increased binding to CD56 bright NK cells via the IL-2R beta subunit 4 . This then leads to an expansion of CD56 bright NK cells, which target and kill activated T cells and is associated with reduced inflammation in the brain and decreased atrophy of brain tissue.Daclizumab is humanized anti-Tac 5, 6 and is composed of two humanized gamma-1 heavy chains and two humanized kappa light chains 4 that are sequence optimized for high affinity5, 6 . Daclizumab has been used in the treatment or prevention of a variety of autoimmune disorders and renal allograft rejection, respectively 6.

CD25 is constitutively expressed at high levels on CD4+CD25+FoxP3+regulatory T cells and at low levels on resting T cells. CD25 is expressed by approximately 30%of human peripheral blood B cells, particularly those belonging to the memory B cell population.Additionally, CD25 is expressed on the cell surface of many lymphomas and is increased withinserum and the central nervous system of patients with multiple sclerosis.
