3D medical animation still showing secretion of cytokines. Cytokines (/ ˈ s aɪ t ə k aɪ n /) [1] are a broad and loose category of small proteins (~5–25 kDa [2]) important in cell signaling.Due to their size, cytokines cannot cross the lipid bilayer of cells to enter the cytoplasm and therefore typically exert their functions by interacting with specific cytokine receptors on the target ...

细胞因子（ cytokine，CK） 是免疫原、 丝裂原 或其他刺激剂诱导多种细胞产生的低分子量 可溶性蛋白质 ，具有调节固有免疫和适应性免疫、血细胞生成、细胞生长以及损伤组织修复等多种功能。 细胞因子可被分为白细胞介素、干扰素、肿瘤坏死因子超家族、集落刺激因子、趋化因子、生长因 …

What do cytokines do? Cytokines are most known for regulating inflammation in your body. Many people think of inflammation as a pesky symptom that means you’re sick or have allergies.But inflammation is a sign that your body’s immune cells are …

細胞因子（英語： cytokine ）又稱細胞激素、細胞介素 [1] 、細胞活素 [2] 、細胞素 [3] ，是一组蛋白质及多肽，在生物中用作信号蛋白。 这些类似激素或神经递质的蛋白用作细胞间沟通的信号。 细胞因子多是水溶性蛋白和糖蛋白，分子量小（8-30千道耳顿） [4] 。. 细胞因子可以由多种细胞释 …

Cytokines are critical mediators that oversee and regulate immune and inflammatory responses via complex networks and serve as biomarkers for many diseases. Quantification of cytokines has significant value in both clinical medicine and biology as ...

Cytokines, their Receptors and their Genes. Table 1 introduces the human cytokines and lists some of their properties, such as receptor usage and physical characteristics.Each human cytokine described in Table 1 has a murine counterpart so the basic list can be used interchangeably in regards to terminology. Hundreds of cytokines have been identified. In the interest of conciseness the table ...

cytokine, any of a group of small, short-lived proteins that are released by one cell to regulate the function of another cell, thereby serving as intercellular chemical messengers.Cytokines effect changes in cellular behaviour that are important in a number of physiological processes, including reproduction, growth and development, and injury repair.

Cytokines play an important role in host defense against microorganisms. They orchestrate innate immunity by inducing protective local inflammation and systemic acute phase responses. Cytokines are important in initiating, amplifying, directing, ...
