    GlossaryTh2 cytokines

    regulate immune responses, especially in allergies and parasitic infections

    Th2 cytokines are signaling proteins produced by Type 2 helper T cells (Th2 cells) that play a crucial role in the immune system. They help regulate immune responses, particularly by promoting the production of antibodies and combating extracellular parasites like helminths. Th2 cytokines, such as IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13, are also involved in allergic reactions and can contribute to conditions like asthma and eczema.
