Question

Hormone-like host peptides used for communications in innate and adaptive immunity are known as: epitope PAMPS cell adhesion molecules cytokines

Answer 1

Answer . cytokines

Cytokines are small low molecular peptide molecules involved as signaling molecules in the immune system. These signalling molecules help in cell communication and send a variety of factors to the site of inflammation or infection. Cytokines include interleukins, interferons. T helper cells also aid in the secretion of factors called cytokines which in turn help in activating B cells, macrophages. Both types of immune responses require cytokines for activation. Cytokines also regulate the immune responses generated.
