    Glossary Interleukins

    proteins that help cells communicate in the immune system

    Interleukins are a group of proteins that play a crucial role in the immune system by facilitating communication between cells. They help regulate inflammation, immune responses, and the development of white blood cells. For example, certain interleukins can promote the growth of T-cells, which are essential for fighting infections, while others can trigger inflammation to help the body respond to injury or infection.
