✦ Synopsis

Multiple lines of evidence implicate cytokines in the pathogenesis of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Neutralization of the biological activities of cytokines by interfering with ligand binding to specific cell-surface cytokine receptors thus represents an approach to controlling such diseases. Several agents, including novel, receptor-based antagonists, are being developed and tested in disease models.
