3. Peptide growth factors are multiregulate inflammatory events, the important signals being mediated through IL-1, IL-6, TNF-a and f,, platelet activating factors and the interferons. Tissue macrophages and monocytes produce IL-I and TNF-ac and these act as early "alarm" cytokines; subsequently the release of other peptides, including transforming growth factor, B, occurs. The expression of adhesion molecules on blood vessel capilliary endothelial cells is an functional;Sporn, M.B.; Roberts, A.B.;Nature,1988
