Cytokines Panel
For the detection and measurement of important inflammation signaling molecules
Details About this Test
- Cytokines modulate the immune system and can be released as both innate and adaptive immune responses
- Cytokines can be both pro- and anti-inflammatory, depending on a variety of factors
- They can point to underlying disorders such as autoimmunity or tumors
- If an underlying disorder is already recognized, cytokines may be associated with the severity of the immune response
- Vibrant provides the most comprehensive cytokine panel available, to understand severity of the inflammatory process involved
- The Cytokines panel may be able to aid in assessing the severity of inflammation involved in autoimmune conditions
- This panel may provide insight into Infections like Lyme disease, such as IL-23 in post-Lyme disease symptomatic individuals, and IL-15 and IL-17 in Lyme arthritis prevention
- Cytokines are important to measure in anti-aging medicine, too. IL-1 alpha is important in the context of senescent cells, and low levels are associated with decreased age-related issues in senescent cells
- High IFN gamma is seen in individuals with extreme food sensitivities and it has been shown to damage the intestinal lining
