Performance

PBMC (5000 cells/well) were incubated for 20 hours in the absence or presence of LPS and the number of cells secreting IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α was analyzed by FluoroSpot. Single cytokine secreting cells as well as double- and triple-secreting cells were determined. Spot center was used to identify spots from double- and triple-secreting cells, visualized in an image overlay of LED490, FITC (IL-1β) and LED550, Cy3 (IL-6) and LED640, Cy5 (TNF-α). Spot analysis was made with Mabtech IRIS.

Analyte information

IL-1β

Analyte description	Interleukin 1ß (IL-1ß) is a proinflammatory cytokine and inducer of acute phase responses. IL-1ß is produced primarily by monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells after induction by microbes.
Alternative names	Interleukin-1ß, IL-1ß, IL-1F2, Interleukin-1beta, IL-1 beta, IL1b, Interleukin-1 beta, IL-1, IL1-BETA, IL1F2, IL1beta
Cell type	Monocyte/MΦ, mDC
Gene ID	3553

IL-6

Analyte description	Interleukin 6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic cytokine produced by many different cell types and plays a role in a wide range of functions, such as immune responses, acute-phase reactions, and hematopoiesis. Among other things, it augments antibody production from activated B cells in vitro.
Alternative names	Interleukin 6, IL-6, IL6, IFB-B502, BSF-2, BCDF, BSF2, CDF, HGF, HSF, IFN-beta-2, IFNB2
Cell type	B cell, Monocyte/MΦ, mDC
Gene ID	3569

TNF-α

Analyte description	Tumor necrosis factor (TNF), also known as TNF-α, is produced by many different cell types, e.g., monocytes, macrophages, T cells, and B cells. Among the many effects of TNF-α are protection against bacterial infection, cell growth modulation, immune system regulation, and involvement in septic shock.
Alternative names	Tumor necrosis factor-α, TNF-α, TNF-alpha, TNF-a, TNFa, Tumor necrosis factor-alpha, TNF, DIF-alpha, TNFA, TNFSF2, TNLG1F
Cell type	T cell, Tc, Th1, Th2, Th17, Tfh, Monocyte/MΦ
Gene ID	7124
