Detailed Description
The investigators designed a single center, open-label, prospective study that routinely administered low-dose IL-2 therapy to monitor the improvement of clinical and laboratory parameters to explore its efficacy and to observe changes in immune cell subsets and cytokines.For all patients,rhIL-2(500,000 unit per square meter) infusions seven days;recurrent patients were applied again for 7 days;patients who were diagnosed HSPN were treated on a routine basis for 7 consecutive days, and then once every two week for 3months.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- The change of immunological responses [day 0,day 7]
Enumeration of the number of subjects with a change in the absolute number of immune cells and serum cytokines in the peripheral blood
Secondary Outcome Measures
- The value of serum immunoglobulins and complements [day 0,day 7,3 month,6 month]
Laboratory measures were detected, including,serum total IgE, serum Ig A,serum IgG,serum IgM,C3 and C4.
- Incidence of adverse drug reactions [up to 6 month]
Adverse events includes injection site reactions, influenza-like symptoms, infection, fever, tumor, cardiovascular event,drug-induced liver and kidney damage.
