The Bio-Plex Pro human Th17 cytokine panel is a unique blend of magnetic beadbased immunoassays designed to meet the needs of the most discerning preclinical and clinical researchers. The multiplex format enables robust and reproducible measurement of 15+1 soluble proteins involved in the T-helper cell type 17 immune response pathway, which is thought to play a key role in inflammatory conditions such as:

    Rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, multiple sclerosis, and other autoimmune diseases
    Antimicrobial immunity
    Transplant rejection
    Cancer

The panel enables measurement of the following analytes in diverse matrices such as serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants:

    IL-1β
    IL-4
    lL-6
    IL-10
    IL-17A
    IL-17F
    IL-21
    IL-22
    IL-23
    IL-25
    IL-31
    IL-33
    IFN-γ
    sCD40L
    TNF-α
    IL-17A/F (singleplex only)

Based on 6.5 m magnetic beads, these assays are compatible with both vacuum and magnetic wash stations. Magnetic washing simplifies plate processing, provides increased throughput, and results in decreased variability and increased reproducibility.
