Abstract

Cytokines and soluble adhesion molecules play an increasing role in laboratory medicine especially due to the increasing knowledge of the function of the immune system and the availability of cytokine assays on analyzers working in the "random-access" mode. This meeting report gives an insight of different applications for the measurements of these immunomediators. Examples from surgery, pediatrics, transplantation medicine and immunopharmacology show that these parameters could provide early and useful information for diagnosis, prognosis, therapeutic decision making and drug actions.
