Abstract excerpt
The expression of MHC class II (HLA-DR) and complement receptor (CR1) surface molecules on CD 14+ monocytes were compared with the production of the monokine interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) in patients with endstage renal disease undergoing maintenance haemodialysis (HD) with hollow fibre dialyzers containing cellulose (CE, n = 8) and polysulfone (PS, n = 7) membranes. Monocyte staining was performed in blood...
