These chemical messenger molecules sometimes thought of as hormones of the immune system, are involved in mediating the inflammatory response. The homeostatic balance of the immune system is in large part dependent on the cytokines since some are pro-inflammatory (e.g., interleukin-6) and others are anti-inflammatory (e.g., interleukin-4). Cytokines include interleukin, interferon, and tumor necrosis factor.
