Abstract excerpt
The role of TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma in various models of autoimmune disease were analyzed. These include murine models of lupus, type 1 diabetes in NOD mice and the adjuvant arthritis model in rats. Rather than being involved mainly in the effector arm of the inflammatory process of autoimmune or...
