INTERLEUKINS TABLE UW Flashcards
what cytokines are acute? 3
IL-1, IL-6, TNF-alfa
what cytokines are late?2
IL-8, IL-12
Source of IL-1?
Macrophages (/monocytes)
Other cells: endothelial cells, dendritic cells, B cells, fibroblasts
Source of IL-2?
all activated T cells (mainly CD4)
Source of IL-3?
all activated T cells
Source of IL-4?
Th2 cells (+mast cells)
Source of IL-5?
Th2 cells (+mast cells)
Source of IL-6?
Macrophages (/monocytes)
Source of IL-7?
Adventitial reticular cells
Source of IL-8?
Macrophages
T cells
Other cells: endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells
Source of IL-10?
Th2 (main)
Treg cells
Macrophages
Source of IL-12?
Macrophages
Most important anti-inflammatory interleukin?
IL-10
Most important proinflammatory interleukins?
IL-1 and 6 (and TNF-α)
Functions of most important proinflammatory interleukins/
endogenous pyrogens (fever) and main mediators of sepsis
IL-1 and 6 (and TNF-α). Three functions?
fever, inflammation and shock
Osteoclast-activating factor?
IL-1
Dysregulation of IL-1 leads to ….
Dysregulation of IL‑1 in cartilage leads to damage and osteoarthritis.
Induces expression of adhesion molecules in the endothelium? ICAM
IL-1, TNF-alpha
Mediates septic shock by activating the endothelium, which causes vascular leakage and recruitment of white blood cells?
TNF-alpha
Causes cachexia?
TNF-alpha
Causes vascular leak?
TNF-alpha
Main in mediation of septic shock? from FA/AMBOSS
TNF-alpha
Cytotoxic and inhibits carcinogenesis of certain tumors?
TNF-alpha
Maintenance of granulomas (critical defense against mycobacterial infections)?
TNF-alpha
Functions on TNF-alpha?
Pyrogenic, cytotoxic + inhibits carcinogenesis (for tumor cells), cachexia, maintenance of granulomas in TB, septic shock + recruitment of WBCs, inflammation, endothelial activation
Cachectin in other name?
tumor necrosis factor; formerly tumor necrosis factor-alpha
IL-8 function?
activation of neutrophils + major chemostatic factor for neutrophils
IL-12 functions?2
Induces differentiation of naive T cells to Th1 cells.
Activates/increase activity of NK cells (and T CD8 according to UW)
Main IL for naive T cells –> Th1 cells?
IL-12
What cytokines secreted by macrophages?
IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, IL-12, TNF-alpha
What interleukins is important for ,,cell mediated response”?
IL-12
It lets differentiation of naive T cells –> Th1 cells
What 2 recruit WBC?
IL-1 and TNF-alpha
How a fever is induced?
IL acts on hjypothalamus
Hepatic synthesis of acute phase reactants (early inflammatory reaction and positive reinforcement)?
IL-6
Differentiation of B cells and cytotoxic T cells?
IL-6
Inhibits hematopoiesis?
IL-6
What is IL-1 action on vessels?
vasodilation –> edema
IL-1 is one for septic shock. Others are IL-6 and TNF-alpha
IL-1 functions?
Fever, inflammation, vasodilation (on of IL for sepsis), activation of endothelium, activates osteoclasts, acute phase reactants, promotes differentiation of Th17 cells involved in autoimmunity,
Hematopoietic growth factor
Stimulates proliferation of granulocytes in the bone marrow and lymphocytes in the spleen, Inhibits hematopoiesis
