IL-1
causes fever, acute inflammation; activates endothelium to expression adhesion molecules; recruits WBCs; also called osteoclast-activating factor
IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-alpha can mediated fever and sepsis
IL-6
causes fever and stimulates production of acute-phase proteins
IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-alpha can mediated fever and sepsis
TNF-alpha
activates endothelium; WBC recruitment, vascular leak
causes cachexia in malignancy; maintains granulomas in TB
IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-alpha can mediated fever and sepsis
IL-8
chemotactic factor for neutrophils
IL-12
induces T cell differentiation into Th1 cells; activates NK cells
IL-2
stimulate growth of helper, cytotoxic, and regulatory T cells and NK cells
IL-3
supports growth and differentiation of bone marrow stem cells; functions like GM-CSF
INF-gamma
secreted by NK cells and T cells in response to antigen or IL-12 from macrophages
stimulates macrophages to kill phagocytosed pathogens; inhibits differentiation of Th2 cells; induces IgG isotype switching; increases MHC expression
IL-4
induces differentiation of T cells into Th2 cells; promotes growth of B cells; enhances IgE class switching
IL-5
promotes growth and differentiation of B cells; enhances class switching to IgA; stimulates growth/differentiation of eosinophils
