title: Cytokines, chemokines, and their receptors: targets for immunomodulation. Conference report: International Cytokine Society Conference 2005.
abstract: The International Cytokine Society Conference 2005 was held in Seoul, Korea, October 27-31, 2005. This meeting provided the attendants an excellent forum to discuss recent advances in the biology of cytokines, chemokines, their receptors, and the receptors for innate immunity, with particular emphasis on the possibility of interfering with these systems for therapeutic purposes. We herein summarize some of the key findings discussed at the meeting.
