EXPRESSION OF mRNA FOR CYTOKINES COMPARED TO THEIR CONCENTRATIONS IN CULTURE SUPERNATES OF U937 CELLS EXPOSED TO POLYCLONAL ACTIVATORS

Investigation of the cytokine expression dynamics as well as the cytokine-producing potential of immune-competent cells allows extensive studies of their functional characteristics. mRNAs encoding a number of cytokine genes are relatively stable, thus their level may be used as a marker for assessin...
