Mouse splenocytes (200,000 cells/well) were incubated overnight in the absence or presence of ConA and anti-CD28 mAb. The number of cells secreting IFN-γ and TNF-α was analyzed by FluoroSpot. Single cytokine secreting cells and dual-secreting cells were determined. Spot center was used to identify spots from double-secreting cells, visualized in an image overlay of LED490, FITC (IFN-γ) and LED550, Cy3 (TNF-α). Spot analysis was made with Mabtech IRIS.

IFN-γ

Analyte description	Interferon-γ (IFN-γ) is the only type II interferon. This proinflammatory cytokine is secreted by activated T cells and NK cells. It activates macrophages and endothelial cells and regulates immune responses by affecting APCs, T cells, and B cells. Production of IFN-γ by helper T cells and cytotoxic T cells is a hallmark of the Th1-type phenotype. Thus, high-level production of IFN-γ is typically associated with effective host defense against intracellular pathogens.
Alternative names	Interferon-γ, Interferon-gamma, IFN-γ, IFN-gamma, IFN-g, IFNg, If2f, Ifg
Cell type	T cell, Tc, Th1, NK cell
Gene ID	15978

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, TNFSF2, TNFalphaa, Tnfsf1a, Tnlg1f, Tnf
Cell type	T cell, Tc, Th1, Th2, Th17, Tfh, Monocyte/MΦ
