Tumor necrosis factor antagonists are administered in therapeutically effective doses to suppress inflammatory immune-potentiated events. The antagonists of this invention typically are selected from among several classes but preferably are neutralizing antibodies directed against tumor necrosis factor. The antagonists are useful in suppressing transplantation immunity and in the treatment of autoimmune diseases.
