An overview of the many aspects of cytokine safety evaluation currently in progress and evolving strategies for evaluating these important entities was presented at this symposium. Cytokines play a broad role to help the immune system respond to diseases, and drugs which modulate their effect have led to some amazing therapies.

Abstract:
In order to replicate efficiently within the host, viruses have evolved multiple strategies to evade the host's immune system. In many cases viruses have actually hijacked various components of the host's immune system to ensure their own survival. One such strategy is the expression of virus encoded cytokines and cytokine receptors. Members of the poxvirus and herpesvirus families have been particularly successful with this strategy. The study of virus survival strategies provides important information regarding both virus biology as well as information about the immune system itself.

Abstract:
Many investigators have suggested that different cytokines may be important players in the development and progression of cancer and tumor biology. Cytokines are integral to many different aspects of cancer, including development/advancement, treatment, and prognosis. However, so far most cytokine -based therapy trials have fallen short of expectations. One of main obstacles is the difficulty to achieve therapeutically relevant dosage in patients without generating excessive normal tissue toxicity. Furthermore, cytokine profile levels have been used to predict cancer prognosis as differential

They have critical roles in haematopoiesis, inflammatory responses and the development and maintenance of immune responses. Importantly, cytokines act in networks or cascades. Typical properties of cytokines in these networks are pleiotropy, redundancy, synergistic activity

Abstract:
Cytokines secreted by individual immune cells regulate tissue regeneration and allow communication between various cell types. Cytokines bind to cognate receptors and trigger the healing process. Determining the orchestration of cytokine interactions with their receptors on their cellular targets is essential to fully understanding the process of inflammation and tissue regeneration. To this end, we have investigated the interactions of Interleukin-4 cytokine (IL-4)/Interleukin-4 cytokine receptor (IL-4R) and Interleukin-10 cytokine (IL-10)/Interleukin-10 cytokine receptor (IL-10R) using in si

Abstract Background Inflammatory deregulation may be a major factor in cancer related symptoms (Dantzer Nature Rev Clin Oncol 2012). Improved symptoms in myelofibrosis (MF) patients treated with single arm ruxolitinib (JAK1/JAK2 inhibitor) studies has been correlated with normalization of selected cytokines increased pre-therapy (c-reactive protein, IL-1ra, MIP-1b, TNF-a, and IL-6; Verstovsek NEJM 2010).

Background and Objectives: Most published research has only investigated a single timepoint after the onset of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), meaning that they have been unable to observe the relationship between the dynamic changes in cytokines and SAP progression. In this study, we attempted to reveal the relationship between dynamic changes in cytokine expression levels and SAP disease progression and the relationship between cytokines, using continuous large-scale cytokine detection.

This is the first of a 2-part article on understanding cytokines. Cytokines are intercellular signaling proteins released from virtually all nucleated cells that influence growth and cellular proliferation in a wide range of tissues. Cytokines have immune modulating effects and are understood to control most of the physical and psychological symptoms associated with infection and inflammation. Cytokines also influence reproduction and bone remodeling. Dysregulation of the cytokine cellular system has significant implications in the development of a variety of illnesses, including most autoimmu

Numerous cytokines and growth factors signal the normal processes of tissue maintenance and remodeling in the lung, yet the aberrant expression of these peptide mediators is involved in a variety of pulmonary diseases. Furthermore, several different binding proteins function in controlling the extracellular levels of many of these cytokines in the lung. For example, a variety of cytokines and growth factors bind to and are regulated by the ubiquitous proteinase inhibitor, alpha 2-macroglobulin. The insulin-like growth factors are controlled by a specific class of six different insulin-like gro

Abstract:
Cytokines are essential mediators in immune regulation, balancing pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory responses to maintain homeostasis and combat infections. Pro-inflammatory cytokines, including TNF-α, IL-6, and IFN-γ, initiate and sustain immune activation by enhancing cellular recruitment and promoting antimicrobial activity. Conversely, anti-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-10 and TGF-β mitigate excessive inflammation, preventing tissue damage and fostering immune tolerance. This duality underscores the complex interplay between these cytokine categories, which is crucial for immune s

Abstract The ability of extracellular stimuli to modulate dendritic cell (DC) activation of natural killer T (NKT) cells was not well understood. We investigated the effects of the T helper type 1 (Th1)/Th2-cytokine environment on DC induction of NKT cell-mediated cytokine production in mice. Pretreatment of myeloid DCs with Th1 or Th2 cytokines, interleukin (IL)-4 or interferon (IFN)-γ, led to the enhanced production of reciprocal cytokines by NKT cells (eg, IL-4 pretreatment led to the enhanced production of Th1 cytokines) in vitro and in vivo. Thus, the recognition of Th1 or Th2 cytokines b

The objective of this study is to review the detailed mechanism of action and the biological profiles of IL-37, the newest anti-inflammatory cytokine.
