[Cytokine release in sarcoid alveolitis].
In sarcoidosis a compartmentalized activation of the immune system exists which yields clinical parameters of disease activity. By means of the spontaneous interleukin-1 and tumor-necrosis-factor-alpha release the same phenomenon could be demonstrated for the macrophage/monocyte system.
