It plays a significant role on the biological activity of thymulin (thymic hormone) and in the synthesis and release of various cytokines, such as IL-1 and IL-2 and a zinc deficiency leads to a depressed activity of thymulin, a reduced activity of natural killer cells, the CD4 + T cells, with decreased production of IgA, IgM and IgG [37]. Here, CD40LG is linked to Zinc deficiency.
