Introduction to cytokines

Cytokine (CK)

Cytokines are small proteins (8-80 KD) that are secreted by cells and exert biological activity through specific cell surface receptors.

General properties of CKsSmall proteins (MW: approx. 15-80

KD)

Extremely potent, acting at pM or fM

The production is transient and tightly regulated

Autocrine, paracrine or endocrine

Non-specific and non-MHC restricted

3 MAJOR ROUTES OF CYTOKINE TRAVEL

Cytokine actions1) Pleiotropy Acts on more than one cell type2) Redundancy More than one cytokine have the same

action 3) Synergy Two or more cytokines cooperate to produce

an effect that is different or greater than the combined effect of the two cytokines when functioning separately

4) Antagonism Two or more cytokines work against each

other 5 ) The cytokine network

Categories of CKsCKs are classified into 6 functional

categoriesInterleukin (IL)Interferon (IFN)Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)Colony stimulating factor (CSF)ChemokineGrowth factor (GF)

Interferon, IFNIFNs are mediators of the innate immune

response and Th1/CTL responses.Groups Type I IFN: IFN-α and IFN-β The major source is leukocytes (PDC),

fibroblasts and virus infected cells.

Type II IFN: IFN-γ IFN-γ is produced by activated T cells and

NK cells.

Tumor necrosis factor, TNFTNF was originally identified (and was so

named) as a substance that can cause the necrosis of tumors in vivo

TNF-α and TNF-β TNF-α is produced by LPS-stimulated mononuclear phagocytes and activated T

cells.

TNF-β is also termed lymphotoxin ( LT), and is produced mainly by activated T cells.

Colony-stimulating factors, CSFStimulates the differentiation and

expansion of bone marrow progenitor cells.

It is assayed by its ability to stimulate the formation of cell colonies in culture.

Includes IL-3, CSF (G-CSF, M-CSF, GM-CSF), SCF, EPO, TPO, etc .

Chemokines (chemotactic cytokines)Chemokines are a large family of

structurally homologous CKs that stimulate movement and regulate the migration of leukocytes from the blood to tissues and within tissues, and includes about 50 different members.

Subfamilies: CXC (), CC (), C (), CX3C (), based on structural characteristics (cysteine residues).

Cytokine-related diseasesBacterial septic shock

Blood pressure drops, clots form, hypoglycemia ensues, patient dies

LPS triggers results in TNF releaseTNF induces IL-1 which induces IL-6 and IL-8

Bacterial toxic shock and related diseasesSuperantigens trigger large numbers of T cells which

release massive amounts of cytokines (Super antigens are bacterial toxins that bridge CD4 T cell receptors and the MHC class II molecules on APC’s, bypassing the need for antigen)

Lymphoid and myeloid cancersSome cancer cells secrete cytokines
