Properties of Cytokines (With Diagram) | Immunology

In this article we will discuss about the properties of cytokines (explained with diagram). 1. Cytokines are a group of low-molecular- weight regulatory proteins secreted by WBC and other cells in the body. 2. Cytokine secretion is very specific and self- limited event as because they are not usually stored as performed molecules. Cytokine synthesis is initiated by new gene [...]
