Inflammatory Cytokine Pathway

Molecular classification
Cytokine network, Signaling pathway
01

Overview

The inflammatory cytokine pathway is a network of signaling molecules—primarily cytokines—that play a central role in initiating and regulating inflammation. These cytokines are produced by various immune cells in response to pathogens, injury, or other harmful stimuli and are essential for coordinating the body's defense mechanisms. Dysregulation or chronic overproduction of inflammatory cytokines contributes to numerous diseases.
