MUST KNOW FACTS ABOUT CYTOKINES

-

                                    CYTOKINES 

INTRODUCTION:

  • Cells communicate at molecular level by cytokine
  • Paracrine function: released peptide and other molecule
  • Soluble protein

SECRETD BY :

  • Hemopoietic 
  • Non-hemopoietic cells in response to various stimuli

ROLE:

  • Activaton of immune system 






PROPERTIES EXHIBITED:

  • PLEIOTROPHIC:

One cytokine act on different cell type

  • REDUNDANCY:

Similar function by different cytokine

  • Cascade induction:

one cytokine stimulate its target cell to make another cytokine

  • SYNERGY:

Combination cytokine result in combined effect 







CATEGORIES:

  • INTERFERON-involved in antiviral response 
  • INTERLEUKIN-produced by one leucocyte, act on other
  • TUMOUR NECROSIS FACTOR
  • TRANSFORMING GROWTH FACTOR
  • COLONY STIMULATING FACTOR-support growth of blood cell
  • GROWTH FACTOR
  • Growth factor and other cytokine -CRINOPECTIN
  • Cytokine involved in leukocyte endothelial cell interaction -CHEMOKINE 







INTERLEUKIN:

  • About 35 interleukin been identified 
  • Example : T-Cell secrete -INTERLEUKIN -2 and bind to T-cell (AUTOCRINE SIGNALLING)

also secrete INTERLEUKIN 4 -Bind to B cell - result in B cell differentiation to plasma cell.





TUMOUR NECROSIS FACTOR:

  • Produced by : Mast cell, Macrophage, T-cell
  • Regulate immune response and inflammation
  • Example: Macrophage release tumor necrosis factor alpha bind to neutrophil result in activation of neutrophils .





INTERFERON:

  • Two types :type 1 :INTERFERON -ALPHA AND INTERFERON BETA
  • TYPE2:INTERFERON GAMMA
  • Increases phagocytosis by macrophage 
  • When virus enter cell (infected) it release interferon -bind to near by uninfected cell to produce -anti-viral proteins
  • Prevents spread of viral infection

HELLO! DOCTOR VANAKAM, I hope you all are doing good today we will be discussing sterilization various methods of sterilization, about dry heat sterilization and moist heat sterilization along with different methods employed, and what are the materials to be placed in this method in detail about autoclave its principle, working and of course uses. As I have had already informed you all through my previous post on the contribution of Louis Pasteur and Koch postulates if we haven't checked it out yet do check it out using this link   https://www.stencildent.com/2020/07/contributions-of-louis-pasteur-and-koch.html  wherein I would explain the importance for the need of the HOUR and always to sterilize things to and from the patients and also get geared up for the next post on SHOCK wherein I would cover the definition, types, classification along with etiology, pathogenesis, flow chart, the complication of septic shock in detail so now without any further ado lets get starte...

                          HYPERSENSITIVITY   hello, doctor vanakam, I hope you all are doing good, as intimated through the last post on anaerobic culture method  https://www.stencildent.com/2020/08/anaerobic-culture-methods-microbiology.html  if u haven't checked it out do read using this link without any further ado lets get started. CONTENTS: 1)Definition 2)Classification 3)type 1 hypersensitivity reaction a)1st exposure b)2nd exposure c)mediators of reaction d)late-phase reaction 4)type 4 hypersensitivity 5)treatment  1)DEFINITION: It refers to a condition in which immune response results in excessive reaction leading to tissue damage, disease, or even death in a sensitised host. 2) CLASSIFICATION: Coomb and gel classification in 1963 into type 1 to 4  Type 1,    type 2, type 3       : They depend on the interaction of antigen with humoral antibodies They are the i...
