A method for diagnosis of immunologically-mediated conditions such as allergic conditions, autoimmune diseases and immunological deficiency, and of assessing immunological reactivity associated with conditions such as viral infections, cancer, AIDS, tissue transplantation and the like. the method comprises: Taking a sample from a subject suspected to be manifesting an abnormal immunological reaction; isolating leukocytes from subject and a control; measuring the level of expression of a transcription factor in unstimulated leukocytes; stimulating the leukocytes by exposure to a stimulus; measuring the level of expression of a transcription factor in stimulated leukocytes; comparing results of stimulated and unstimulated leukocytes from subject and control; a significant difference in expression between the subject and control is indicative of an abnormal immunological reaction.
