Serum concentration of IL-6, IL-2, TNF-α, and IFNγ in Vitiligo patients

Abstract

An increase in the production of proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-6 and IL-2 in vitiligo patients may play an important role in melanocytic cytotoxicity. Thus, we speculate that the cytokine production of epidermal microenvironment may be involved in vitiligo.
