Pathophysiology of cytokines

W H Fridman et al. Leuk Res. 1990.

Abstract

Beside their therapeutic effects, cytokines are involved in pathologies such as IL-6 in myeloma tumor growth and bone resorption, BCGF in the proliferation of hairy cell leukemic cells, IL-2 in the capillary leak syndrome. For biotherapy to develop, it is necessary to understand both the beneficial and the deletorious effects of cytokines.
