Q

IL-10

A

Secreted by macrophages DC and Treg Cells
Tissue repair
Regulatory Cytokine

17
Q

IL-12

A

Secreted by macrophages and DC’s
Upregulates NK cell activity and promotes T cell differentiation into Th1 cells which aid with antiviral/intracellular immunity
Differentiation into CD8+ CTL
Induces IFN-gamma production by NK cells and T cells
Survival cytokine for recently activated CTL (need MHC:Ag+costimulatory+IL-12)
Because it induces CTL response, to induces expression of IFN-gamma and TNF-beta by CD4+ and CD8+ cells

18
Q

IL-13

A

Secreted by CD4+ Th2 cells

Mucosus secretion and wound repair by MZ macrophages

19
Q

IL-15

A
Secreted by DC's and tissue macrophages
NK cell proliferation
Expression of anti-apoptotic proteins in memory T cells
Slow proliferation of memory T cells
Shares gamma chain receptor of IL-2R
