| abstractText | Cytokines are key regulators of host defenses mediated by the central nervous system and are important in the development of signs of sickness, such as anorexia and fever. Despite the well-documented redundancy in the cytokine cascade, recent studies with knockout animals have demonstrated successfully considerable functional specificity of cytokines in normal, as well as sickness, behavior. |
