Difference between Cytokine and Skin

Cytokine vs. Skin

Cytokines are a broad and loose category of small proteins (~5–20 kDa) that are important in cell signaling. Skin is the soft outer tissue covering vertebrates.

Similarities between Cytokine and Skin

Cytokine and Skin have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Autocrine signalling, Fibroblast, Growth factor, Macrophage, Oxidative stress, Paracrine signalling, Protein.

Autocrine signalling

Autocrine signaling is a form of cell signaling in which a cell secretes a hormone or chemical messenger (called the autocrine agent) that binds to autocrine receptors on that same cell, leading to changes in the cell.

Fibroblast

A fibroblast is a type of biological cell that synthesizes the extracellular matrix and collagen, the structural framework (stroma) for animal tissues, and plays a critical role in wound healing.

Growth factor

A growth factor is a naturally occurring substance capable of stimulating cellular growth, proliferation, healing, and cellular differentiation.

Macrophage

Macrophages (big eaters, from Greek μακρός (makrós).

Oxidative stress

Oxidative stress reflects an imbalance between the systemic manifestation of reactive oxygen species and a biological system's ability to readily detoxify the reactive intermediates or to repair the resulting damage.

Paracrine signalling

Paracrine signaling is a form of cell-to-cell communication in which a cell produces a signal to induce changes in nearby cells, altering the behavior of those cells.
