Cytokines and Chemokines - Jerry- Part 3 Flashcards
Hematopoiesis - Role of B and T cell differentiation. Bone marrow and thymus
IL-7
Activate endothelial cells leading to de novo expression of: ICAM-1, VCAM-1, and E-selectin, and enhanced expression of ICAM-2. As well, they induce endothelial cells to secrete chemokines IL-8 and MCP-1.
IL-1 and TNF (synergistic)
promotes pCTL to CTL differentiation
IL-2
INF-gamma
Shifts Th0 response to Th2 phenotype
IL-4
Inhibitory molecule
IL-10
Plays a key role in fungal infections and in extracellular bacterial infections
IL-17
Chemotactic for eosinophils
IL-5
Eotaxin (CCL11)
recruiting eosinophils to tissues
IL-5
Act on hypothalamus to induce fever and play a key role in lowering of blood pressure leading to shock.
IL-1 & TNF (Sytematically)
Enhances NK cell cytotoxicity
IL-2
