cytokine
Description
A substance made by cells of the immune system. Cytokines allow immune system cells to communicate with each other and thus help carry out the body’s immune response (the immune system’s reaction to the presence of foreign substances in the body).
Cytokines are produced by the body or can be made in a lab.
