I just stumbled across a database that I think could prove very helpful to us. The homepage shows a scary looking diagram showing the connection among macrophage, B-cell, T-cell, Basophil, Eosinophil, Neutrophil? and Mast Cell and the cytokines (ILs) associated with each pathway. Kinda looks like the methylation cycle on steroids! :eek:

The database contains 456 cytokines, 63,356 SNPs and 4,399 disease associated publications. Now if only I could figure out how to use it! Perhaps someone more knowledgable can figure it out.
