General description
Cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors are key mediatorsof immune system functions capable of signaling through autocrine, paracrine,and endocrine mechanisms. Their pleiotropic immunomodulatory propertiesallow these biomolecules to react to diverse stimuli and regulate the immuneresponse, either promoting or inhibiting inflammation.
Application
MILLIPLEX® Qualified assays undergo rigorous assay development, verification, and Quality Control testing to achieve optimal performance. Simultaneously analyze 48 analytes in human serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants.
Analytes included: sCD40L, EGF, Eotaxin/CCL11, FGF-2/FGF-basic, FLT-3L, Fractalkine/CX3CL1, G-CSF, GM-CSF, GROα, IFNα2, IFNγ, IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-1RA, IL-2, IL-3, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-7, IL-8, IL-9, IL-10, IL-12 (p40), IL-12(p70), IL-13, IL-15, IL-17A/CTLA8, IL-17E/IL-25, IL-17F, IL-18, IL-22, IL-27, IP-10/CXCL10, MCP-1/CCL2, MCP-3/CCL7, M-CSF, MDC, MIG/CXCL9, MIP-1α/CCL3, MIP-1β/CCL4, PDGF-AA, PDGF-AB/BB, RANTES/CCL5, TGFα, TNFα, TNFβ/LTA, VEGF-A
Note: RANTES cannot be plexed with other cytokines in this panel due to a required 1:100 dilution of plasma/serum samples. This premixed panel comes with a RANTES bead, so please plan your samples accordingly.
Assay Characteristics: Refer to kit protocol for assay cross-reactivity, sensitivity, precision, and accuracy.
Features and Benefits
- Lead the Field with 48-Plex Precision: The ability to profile 48 analytes simultaneously means researchers can uncover intricate cytokine interactions and pathways that are essential for understanding complex diseases.
