Abstract
Serum soluble ICAM-1 concentrations were measured in 10 patients with or without chronic graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD) after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. The serum soluble ICAM-1 levels in the patien ts with chronic GVHD were significantly higher than that in the patien ts without chronic GVHD, The data indicated that serum soluble ICAM-1 is a useful parameter for predicting chronic GVHD.
