Type-1 cytokines are cytokines produced by Th1 T-helper cells while Type-2 cytokines are those produced by Th2 T-helper cells. Type-1 cytokines include IL-2 (IL2), IFN-gamma (IFN-G), IL-12 (IL12) & TNF-beta (TNF-b), while Type 2 cytokines include IL-4 (IL4), IL-5 (IL5)...
Cytokines are small secreted proteins released by cells have a specific effect on the interactions and communications between cells. Cytokine is a general name; other names include lymphokine (cytokines made by lymphocytes), monokine (cytokines made by monocytes), chemokine (cytokines with chemotactic...
Any of various proteins, such as the interleukins and lymphokines, that are released by cells of the immune system and act in intercellular communication, especially in regulating inflammation and the immune response. [cyto-+ Greekkīnein,to move; seekinin.] ...
The exact mechanism of cytokine regulation of T cell responses in autoimmune diseases is not fully understood and may be complicated by the diverse effects of cytokines in divergent tissue environments. Depending on the type of autoimmune disease, both Th1 and Th2 cells may predominate. For ...

Cytokines are small soluble mediators released by immune cells and tissue that play a pivotal part in the pathogenesis of SLE. They are proteins that are important in cell signalling, and able to modulate immune responses rapidly. We review the pleiotrop
IL-12 production by activated DCs and macrophages communicates to T cells and NK cells that anti-viral or anti-bacterial defense is needed. IL-12 induces IFN-γ production from NK cells and strongly polarizes CD4+ T cells to an IFN-γ-producing Th1 phenotype. Early evidence in cancer indica...

Released by cells of hematopoietic origin (reflected in the terms "lymphokines" and "monokines") as well as by a wide variety of non‐hematopoietic cells, cytokines are critical for the normal functioning of the immune defense, which they coordinate by communicating between participating cells. As...
