Cytokines Flashcards
You’re doing amazing sweetie
:) lol it made me add another card
What does CCL19 do?
T cell and dendritic cell migration into the HEV of the lymph node
What does the CCL21 do?
T cell and dendritic cell migration into the HEV of the lymph node
What does IL-8 do?
Neutrophil recruitment in the blood vessel
-cell chemotaxis
SOOO as the neutrophil is rolling, it is looking for these IL-8’s that are one the endothelial cells
What is the function of CCL2? (MCP-1)
Transmigration of monocytes
What is the role of CXCL10?
To bring cells into the tissues; it is produced at the sites of infection
IN PERIPHERAL TISSUES
What is the role of CCL4?
Activation of integrins and chemokinesis
IN PERIPHERAL TISSUES
What is the role of CXCL1?
Neutrophil recruitment
What is the role of CD44?
mobilization of effector T cells; can also mediate rolling interactions with endothelial cells that express HA
What does the binding of CD44 and HA result in?
GPCR-dependent “inside out” upregulation of VLA-4-VCAM binding
What is the role of CXCL12?
Homing chemokine
What is the role of CXCL13? and who recognizes her?
Aids in B cell migration into the follicles, is recognized by CXCR5
What is the role of NFkB?
pro-inflammatory genes; remember the TLR4 ish
What does IFN-alpha and beta do?
resistance to viral infection
What does IFN gamma do?
macrophage activation
