Tuberculosis is probably the most seasoned illness of the humanity. Intricacies or
subsequent death emerging from these infections are frequently connected with cytokine …

ABSTRACT Interleukin-1 (IL-1) is a key player in the immune response to pathogens due to
its role in promoting inflammation and recruiting immune cells to the site of infection. In …

Abstract The interleukin-10 (IL-10) family of cytokines consists of six immune mediators,
namely IL-10, IL-19, IL-20, IL-22, IL-24 and IL-26. IL-10, IL-22, IL-24 and IL-26 are critical for …

Tuberculosis (TB) results from an interaction between a potent immune response and a
chronically persistent pathogen. The ability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) to induce a …

Failure of mice to produce IL-10 has no effect on the bacterial burden of Mycobacterium
tuberculosis infection in the lungs over the first 4–5 months of the disease. We show here …

Our understanding of the role of interleukin (IL)-12 in controlling tuberculosis has expanded
because of increased interest in other members of the IL-12 family of cytokines. Recent data …

Tuberculosis is a chronic infectious disease which causes major health problems globally.
Acquired resistance is mediated by T lymphocytes and executed by activated macrophages …

IL-11 is multifunctional cytokine whose physiological role in the lungs during pulmonary
tuberculosis (TB) is poorly understood. Here, using in vivo administration of specific …

IL-10 is a potent immunomodulatory cytokine that affects innate and acquired immune
responses. The immunological consequences of IL-10 production during pulmonary …

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, is a leading cause of
mortality and morbidity, causing∼ 1.5 million deaths annually. CD4+ T cells and several …
