How can you use “cytokines” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Thus, in both species, adipose tissue is an endocrine organ containing adipocytes as well as macrophages that regulates energy metabolism and glucose homeostasis through secretion of multiple factors, including inflammatory cytokines [46].
Injection of antigen encoding plasmids can be combined with either adjuvants or plasmids encoding immune enhancing cytokines.
In type 1 diabetes, it has been shown that inflammatory cytokines play a central role in the destruction of insulin producing β-cells [ 17 18 19 ] , resulting in the production of oxygen-derived free radicals that induce DNA-damage and apoptosis in both rodent and human β-cells [ 20 21 22 23 24 25 ] . In both type 1 and type 1, as well as, type 2 diabetes, the role of free radicals in diabetic complications is well studied.
This change may have been mediated by other cytokines (IL-1β, IL-8) whose levels have been shown to increase with kinetics that parallel this rise in TTP [ 40 46 47 ] . Alternatively, the late rise in cytoplasmic TTP may be due to release from the bone marrow of leukocytes that have high levels of TTP or an adaptive response to endotoxemia.
Although MHCII are not expressed by the vast majority of studied mouse and human tumors, CD4+ T lymphocytes specific to MHCII-restricted tumor antigens have been found in various cancers [ 1 ] . Those lymphocytes are believed to be generated in vivo following the recognition of MHCII-tumor peptide complexes expressed by host antigen presenting cells and can cause regression of MHCII-negative tumors indirectly, via secretion of cytokines such as IL-2 or IFNg [ 2 ] . The released cytokines can recruit and activate cytotoxic CD8+ T lymphocytes and/or accessory cells (eosinophills, macrophages) which further mediate tumor destruction.
