Study of cytokine balance in lymphoproliferative disorders

Author Affiliations

Abstract

Spontaneous and mitogen-stimulated production of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines in 76 patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma of small lymphocytes with tumor bone marrow, multiple myeloma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma was investigated over the course of chemotherapy. The onset or progression is accompanied by increased level of several inflammatory cytokines, except for IL-2, which production is reduced. The level of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines is mainly reduced at remission. Production of colony-stimulating factors increased in onset or progression, as well as in remission of lymphoproliferative diseases.

Key words

diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, multiple myeloma, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma of small lymphocytes with tumor bone marrow, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, cytokines
