we have studied the mechanism by which cyclosporin a ( csa ) , dexamethasone ( dex ) , and ouabain ( oua ) inhibit t cell proliferation by measuring the effects of these agents on 1 ) interleukin-2 ( il-2 ) production , 2 ) acquisition of il-2 responsiveness , 3 ) the induction of il-2 receptor expression , and 4 ) the specific interaction of il-2 with its receptor .
