Caseating necrosis occurs in?
TB
IL-1
Activates T cell, B cells
IL-3
Secreted by T cell
Stimulates proliferation of haematopoietic progenitor cells
IL-4
Enhances synthesis of IgE
Helper T cell proliferation
IL-5
Activation of eosinophils
Enhances synthesis of IgA
IL-6
Secreted by muscles + T cells + macrophages
Most important cytokine involved in coagulation activation + TNF
Mucous secretion
Pro-inflammatory
IL-10
Anti-inflammatory
CSIF
Pro-inflammatory cytokines
IL2
IL3
IL6
TNF
