Cytokine release

Molecular classification
Process
01

Overview

Cytokine release is the process by which immune cells secrete cytokines, leading to communication between cells during immune responses. Excessive or uncontrolled cytokine release results in a systemic inflammatory response known as a "cytokine storm" or Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS), characterized by widespread inflammation and multi-organ dysfunction.
