Supports the concept that the unmodified alloimmune response involves complex interactions between Th1-like, Th2-like and APC-derived cytokines. Immunomodulation of the alloimmune response is associated with the down regulation of multiple cytokines within both Th1 and Th2 populations with concurrent upregulation of IL-10 expression. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Adelaide, Dept. of Medicine, 1998?
