An introductory-level text examining the basic concepts of cytokine biology as they relate to transfusion medicine. The basic biology of cytokines and their role in transfusion reactions is discusses, along with prestorage leukocyte reduction, bedside filtration and haematopoietic growth factors.

A concise, introductory-level text for understanding the basic concepts of cytokine biology as they relate to transfusion medicine. The text describes the basic biology of cytokines and their role in transfusion reactions, the use of prestorage leukocyte reduction and bedside filtration to reduce cytokine levels generated during storage, and the use of haematopoietic growth factors for autologous blood, platelets, allogeneic stem cell and granulocyte donors. The basis of the role of cytokines in ex vivo expansion is also addressed.

An introduction to cytokine biology; cytokine production during blood component storage; biological response modifiers in blood component processing; inflammatory cytokines in haemolytic transfusion reactions; erythropoietin in blood transfusion; leukocyte growth factors in granulocyte and allogeneic peripheral blood progenitor cell donors; thrombopoietic agents; cytokines in ex vivo stimulation of haematopoietic progenitor cells.
