Inflammation and immune cell response are key to maintaining homeostasis. The more we understand the mechanisms of disease, the more we discover the role that inflammation plays in the etiology of disease. This is as true for horses as it is for humans. Both experience immunological diseases, such as infectious diseases, osteoarthritis, and respiratory diseases, as well as neurologic, metabolic, and cardiovascular diseases and cancer. Until now the ability to measure levels of cytokines and chemokine in horses had been limited primarily to ELISAs. Researchers can now measure multiple inflammation biomarkers simultaneously using the MILLIPLEX(R) Equine Cytokine/Chemokine Panel, based on the Luminex(R) xMAP(R) technology. MILLIPLEX(R) Equine Cytokine/Chemokine Premix Panel is a 23-plex kit used for the simultaneous quantification of all the following analytes in equine serum, plasma, or culture supernatant samples: Eotaxin/CCL11, FGF-2, Fractalkine/CS3CL1, G-CSF, GM-CSF, GRO, IFN, IL-1alpha, IL-1beta, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-8/CXCL8, IL-10, IL-12 (p70), IL-13, IL-17a, IL-18, IP-10, MCP-1, RANTES/CCL5 and TNFalpha. This kit uses a 96-well format, contains a lyophilized standard cocktail, two internal assay quality controls and can measure up to 38 samples in duplicate. The Luminex(R) xMAP(R) platform uses a magnetic bead immunoassay format for ideal speed and sensitivity to quantitate multiple analytes simultaneously, dramatically improving productivity while conserving valuable sample volume. Panel Type: Cytokines/Chemokines
