  • Investigating cytokine roles is crucial for understanding disease mechanisms.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the unknown role of cytokines in disease pathogenesis.
  • To evaluate the application of oral tolerance therapy in human autoimmune diseases.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current research on cytokine functions in disease.
  • Analysis of clinical data from human autoimmune disease patients treated with oral tolerance therapy.

Main Results:

  • Cytokine involvement in pathogenesis remains an active area of investigation.
