The analysis of cytokine levels in the BALF of individual recipients revealed that 3 of 13 recipients in the OB group had markedly elevated levels of IL-8 in their BALF. IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α had a similar pattern in these recipients. In contrast, IL-2 levels were narrowly distributed about the mean in both groups. IL-4 and IL-10 expression were likewise similar.
