Diseases such as covid-19 and influenza can be fatal due to an overreaction of the body’s immune system called a cytokine storm. Cytokines are small proteins released by many different cells in ...

A team of researchers from the Rice Biotech Launch Pad at Rice University in Houston developed the implantable “cytokine factory”. They explained how an immunoprotective device near the tumor ...

Cytokines are proteins, peptides or glycoproteins secreted by lymphocytes and monocytes that regulate immune responses, haematopoiesis and lymphocyte development. Cytokines include interleukins ...

Cytokines are well-known players in the immune response, helping to control inflammation and coordinate the responses of other immune cells. However, a growing body of evidence suggests that some ...

Cytokines are small proteins that serve as the fundamental chemical messengers of the immune system. They also play a key cell signaling role in stem cell biology, relaying messages that direct stem ...

Alterations in cytokine expression associated with inflammation have long been observed in individuals with immune-mediated disease. Clinical trials carried out almost a decade ago were the first ...
