Vocabulary :)




Cytokines: Substances like interferons, interleukins, and growth factors that can be secreted from immune cells.

Cytokines are secreted to effect other cells.

Effector Cells: Cells are activated in an immune response which can help secrete antibodies and activate T cells.

Specific B cells (Effector) and T cells (cytotoxic and helper) are types of effector cells.

Chemokine Receptors: Receptors that are found on the surface of cells that interact with chemokines.

Mammals have at least 20 chemokine receptors.
