I guess it is IL 1 because IL 1 is produced by macrophages , ,,,, IL 12 I guess helps T Helper cells Subset 1 to differnetiate into Cytotoxic T cells and Macrophages which are activated by IL2 and Interferon gamma respectively. But I am not sure , let me knwo the correct answer

Think of it like this when you want to know about the interleukins! "HOT T-Bone stEAk" IL-1:fever(hot) IL-2:stimulates Tcells IL-3:stimulates Bone marrow IL-4:stimulates IgE production IL-5:stimulates IgA production This is from the USMLE Step 1 First Aid

IL-1 is secreted by macrophages whereas IL-2 is secreted by helper T cells

yes it is IL 12. which stimulates TH1 cells to produce IL 2 and IFN alpha.

how do you recognize what is deficient in piogene infections, especially/ or infection with Str pneumoniae and Haemophilus

Low Ig M. Steptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus have the polysaccharide capsule in common which is protecting them from phagocytosis. In Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome,the patient has a deficient IgM response to infections with bacteria that have a polysaccharide capsule.

yes, i am agree with that explanation, polysaccharide is un antigen recognize only limphocyte b. But you can have a recurent infection with the same critter, in deficit in acting of neutrophil ( NADPH oxidase), no? I think is better to have un algorithm to judge, but i don't know it is correct. 1. CBC with complete formula 2. after that immunograme probably i am tired and all it so confusing right know i'll repeat this chapter tomorrow

cytokine-- IL12 major source- Macrophage major target cells-- helper t cell (Th1) and NK cell major effect-- activation :wink:
