Hi Toni,
There is some info on the internet about Interleukin3. Sometimes you
have to try several different search engines before you get anything
worthwhile.
Genetics Institute in Cambridge, Massachusetts is the research
biopharmeceutical company that is licenced for Interleukin3. Their
e-mail address is: info@genetics.com
Maybe you can send them a message asking for any available info on it.
Hope you find out what you're looking for.
God bless,
Jo
