Summary
Studies on antigenicity led to the concept that molecules like the interferons were not
immunogenic in homologous systems because antibodies are not normally produced against
"self" antigens. However, naturally occuring or therapeutically induced antibodies to cytokines
such as interferons, tumor necrosis factors (TNF), interleukins (IL) and various growth factors
were found, which are generally thought to inhibit cytokine functions, and the appearance of such
antibodies should therefore result in various degrees of cytokine deficiency. It is a common
concept that the development of antibodies against any auto-antigen or drug is always
undesirable. Such antibodies are crucial for the pathology of autoimmune diseases and inhibit the
pharmacological effects of drugs including exogenously administered cytokines.
