Cytokines regulate the immune reactions elicited by renal transplantation (RT). This study was designed to investigate the blood serum levels of IL-2, IL-6, IL-8 in 25 RT patients (10 female and 15 male, mean 5.4±2.7 yrs after RT) three times over a six-month period during standard immunosuppressive therapy with cyclosporine A, azathioprine and prednisolone. The levels of IL-2, IL-6 and IL-8 were tested with ELISA Quantikine Human Interleukin Immunoassay (R&D Systems, detection level 7,0.7 and 10 pg/cm3, respectively). There was no significant alternation of blood serum levels of IL-2, IL-6 and IL-8 in the study patients.

Medical problems associated with the increasing number of patients suffering from brain diseases have resulted in a constant search for effective therapeutics. Considering the complicated pathological processes occurring in diseases of the central nervous system and the limited capability of the neural tissue to regenerate, therapy of neurological diseases is extremely difficult. The lack of efficient medical treatment results in complex problems associated with rehabilitation and thus in functional disturbances, which prevent patients from restoring their independence and returning to complete, also professional, activity, Cell therapy has recently been considered as a possible approach in the treatment of brain diseases. Its aim is to supply pathologically changed brain tissue with factors promoting regeneration and with cells that may replace the damaged ones. Bone marrow cells have become a potential source of cells in this type of therapy. Bone marrow contains at least two major kinds of stem cells: haematopoietic stem cells, which give rise to the blood cells and mesenchymal stem cells, which can differentiate into cells of mesenchymal lineage and produce an array of growth factors essential for repair. The review presents the achievements of studies on use of bone marrow cells in the therapy of various brain diseases of traumatic or neurodegenerative aetiology.
