The ability of Pneumocystis carinii to induce tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-a release by monocytes/macrophages from immunocompetent humans was investigated. Monocytes and monocyte-derived macrophages from healthy individuals produced an increased amount of TNF-a when exposed to P. carinii cysts obtain
