TNF-alpha- and IFN-gamma-mediated signal transduction pathways: effects on glial cell gene expression and function.
1 Dec 1995
Abstract excerpt
Cytokines are a group of secreted proteins that display diverse biological activity. They are especially important in the body's response to injury. They subserve a variety of both autocrine and paracrine functions by activating numerous intracellular second-messenger signaling pathways. Cytokines are known to mediate many inflammatory processes, and the inappropriate presence of cytokines in the central nervous...
