What is Understanding Cytokines and Their Functions about?

Cytokines are chemical messengers secreted by immune cells that allow different immune cells to communicate with each other. They include interleukins, growth factors, and interferons. Cytokines bind to receptors on target cells and recruit other cells and substances to sites of action, encouraging cell growth and activation while also directing cellular traffic and destroying target cells like cancer cells. Certain cytokines called chemokines attract specific cell types to injured or infected areas.
