The present invention provides for methods for detection, diagnosis and prognosis of beryllium-induced disease. In one embodiment, the methods include exposing immune cells from subjects suspected of having beryllium-induced disease to beryllium and assessing the Th-1 cytokines produced. Other embodiments include the use of exposing immune cells from subjects suspected of having beryllium-induced disease to beryllium and assessing Th-1 cytokines produced and using these assessments to indicate the stage of progression of the disease. Therapeutic methods involve assessing the onset or progression of beryllium-induced disease before during and after exposure to a treatment for the disease.
