What produces cerospinal fluid?
The choroid plexus is responsible for producing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). It is a network of specialized ependymal cells located within the ventricles of the brain. These cells actively secrete CSF into the ventricles, which then circulates throughout the brain and spinal cord.
What is an aggregation of cells specialized to secrete or excrete materials not related to their function?
Glands
What secretes cytokines?
Yes. T cells can differentiate into several kinds of T cells such as Tregs, Th1, Th2, Th3, Th17 and others. Each specialized T cell can be be characterized (to some degree) by the cytokines they secrete. Th1 cells secrete IFN gamma while Th2 cells secrete IL4, IL5, IL9 and IL13. These are not the only cytokines they are capable of secreting, but these are the predominate ones.

Where is the cerebrospinal fluid produce?
Cerebrospinal fluid is produced by modified epithelial cells in the thin membrane that lines the ventricular system of the brain and the spinal cord. These modified epithelial cells are named the ependyma. Each of the cerebral ventricles has an associated choroid plexus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_system) which produce and secrete cerebrospinal fluid. The cerebral ventricles are interconnected spaces within the brain that permit the fluid to circulate in a specific manner. (see http:/www.answers.com/topic/cerebrospinal-fluid?cat=health for an excellent diagram).
