DescriptionMILLIPLEX® Human Cytokine Autoantibody IgM Kit
OverviewThe MILLIPLEX® Human Cytokine Autoantibody IgM Magnetic Bead Panel is a 23-plex kit to be used for the simultaneous detection of any or all of the following analytes in serum and plasma samples: Anti-BAFF, Anti-G-CSF, Anti-IFNβ, Anti-IFNγ, Anti-IL-1α, Anti-IL-6, Anti IL 8, Anti-IL-10, Anti-IL-12p40, Anti-IL-15, Anti-IL-17A, Anti-IL-17F, Anti-IL-18, Anti-IL-22, Anti-TNFα, Anti-IFNα2, Anti-GM-CSF, Anti-IL-2, Anti-IL-3, Anti-IL-4, Anti-Osteopontin, Anti-PF4, and Anti-IFNω.
Background InformationAnti-cytokine antibodies occur frequently and are present in healthy individuals and in individuals with acquired immunodeficiency and autoimmune diseases. Cytokines offering protection against microbes can be targeted by cytokine autoantibodies, leading to life-threatening infections. Some infections associated with anti-cytokine antibodies include M. tuberculosis, Salmonella, S. aureus. E. coli, Histoplasma, and more. The presence of cytokine autoantibodies in autoimmune disease can influence disease severity and activity. These autoimmune diseases may include systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, Sjögren’s syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Measuring cytokine autoantibodies may be useful for disease monitoring and efficacy of treatment.
