Cytokines regulate the immune response ◼ Cells with the appropriate receptors become activated ◼ To differentiate ◼ To express receptors which will make them receptive to other cytokines ◼ To secrete other cytokines
Signal Transduction by cytokine receptors Cytokine receptors on different cell types trigger different events How do you get the message from the outside of the cell to the machinery inside?
