CD56
NK and NKT cell marker
CD59
protectin (inhibits complements system via C9 polycomplex)
IL 1
secreted by antigen presenting cells on helper t cells to help their activation
IL 2
T cell growth factor upon itself to help activation
IL4
induces differentiation of naive helper T cells (Th0 cells) to Th2 cells IL-4 induces B-cell class switching and antibody production
IL 5
T helper 2 cell cytokine, helps Ig production of IgE and IgA
IL 6
most important. T helper 1 cell cytokine, used to inflammation and acute phase. pro-inflam and very helpful for fighting infection
IL 7
