| | Cytokines |
 | | Some of these cytokines are being used to treat patients that have deficiencies in hematopoiesis, such as cancer patients whose bone marrow are damaged by anti-cancer drug therapy. |  | | The functional activity of these cytokines are critical for adaptive immune responses and redundancy might confer an evolutionary advantage to the host. |  | | However, using this approach will at least give you a working knowledge of cytokine biology and help keep them straight. |

 | | Moreover, the finding of elevated IL-12 production by NOD M[Phi] in response to several stimuli suggests that this aspect of cytokine dysregulation could enhance autoreactive Th1 responses in diverse settings. |  | | These observations suggest that some Idd susceptibility loci may be associated with the regulation of cytokine expression, especially that by M[Phi]. |  | | The latter process may interfere with the early establishment of important regulatory pathways and thus disrupt the normal pathway of disease (53). |

 | | In these cases, it may be necessary to use complementary techniques such as multi-probe ribonuclease protection assay analysis, immunofluorescent intracellular cytokine staining with flow cytometric analysis, or ELISPOT, to gauge the relative levels of cytokine expression by various test cell populations. |  | | It should be noted that in addition to providing a rich source of information for clinical and basic science research studies, sandwich ELISA for measuring cytokines and their receptors have become increasingly important as diagnostic tools and for monitoring therapeutic regimens, |  | | For example, because test samples often come from tissue culture supernatants or biological fluids which are conditioned with cytokines produced by mixed cell populations, the ELISA data does not provide direct information on the identities and frequencies of individual cytokine producing cells. |

 | | The final protocol for this has not been completed, but we anticipate that each participating laboratory will carry out phase II studies on at least 100 samples collected from selected racial/ethnic groups, transplant patients, or patients being studied in the disease components. |  | | This interest is due to the fact that certain of these polymorphisms have been shown to correlate with cytokine plasma levels in vitro or with the survival of kidney, heart or lung allografts. |  | | We therefore felt that it would be appropriate and desirable to establish a cytokine polymorphism component (CPC) within the framework of the 13th IHWG. |
