Cerebral ischaemia (‘stroke’) is an acute neurodegenerative disease that is one of the leading causes of death and disability in developed countries. As such it has enormous social as well as financial implications for our society and, despite intense research effort, there is as yet no effective therapy.

Cytokines and legionellosis [PDF]
Recent studies have led to an enhanced understanding of the role of cell-mediated immunity and cytokines in Legionnaires' disease. In particular, the effect of interferon gamma on human mononuclear phagocyte iron metabolism and the role of iron availability of Legionella pneumophila intracellular multiplication in human monocytes has been elucidated ...

Cytokines, Cytokine Receptors and Cytokine Antibodies: Clinical Implications
1997Cytokines are produced by almost any cell and function as important mediators of cell activation, differentiation and proliferation. These diffusibile glycoproteins appear to participate in the mediation of inflammatory as well as immune reactions, and some peptides may even influence tumor growth.

Reviews of Reproduction, 1998
There is strong evidence that cytokines and growth factors play an important role as local mediators of the actions of steroids on the endometrium to prepare it for implantation. These factors have also been shown to act in both an autocrine and paracrine manner to regulate the development of preimplantation embryos in several species.

Cytokines act on eosinophils to regulate eosinophil function, with IL-5 recognised to be especially important in control of eosinopoiesis, eosinophil survival and eosinophil priming. In addition, eosinophils have the capacity to produce cytokines involved in acute and chronic inflammatory and repair processes, as well as to produce cytokines that ...

Cytokine and anti-cytokine therapy for asthma
Current Allergy and Asthma Reports, 2006Cytokines play a critical role in the pathogenesis of asthma. Asthma resolution may depend on the correction of dysregulated cytokine expression, which is a characteristic feature of this chronic inflammatory disease. It is, therefore, not surprising that attempts have been made to either block cytokines present at elevated levels or to substitute ...

Publisher Summary Cytokines are extracellular signaling proteins, produced by different cell types and involved in cell-to-cell interactions. They affect closely adjacent cells and function mainly in paracrine fashion. Lymphokines form the most important class of cytokines involved in immunological mechanisms.
