Abstract

Cytokines are peptide regulatory factors which have been known for more than 40 years. In the past, extensive studies have contributed to a large body of data concerning their structure and their activities. The study of their function included the addition of cytokines to selected cell lines in vitro and the use of inhibitory antibodies and recombinant molecules in vivo. Recently, the production of mice transgenic for cytokine genes, or of mice whose genes encode either cytokines or their receptors, inactivated by homologous recombination (knockout mice), allowed new insight into the function of cytokines in vivo and revealed a whole network of related biological interactions. In contrast to the normal situation, in which the production of cytokines is mostly localized and transient, in the transgenic animals the presence of a transgene, or the complete absence of a targeted gene product, throughout the life of an animal often has consequences different from those that follow the repeated injection of cytokines, which have a short half-life in vivo, or the administration of antibodies, which may not reach every site of cytokine production.
