CBA test assessment of cytokines Th1/Th2
Assessment of Th1/Th2 cytokine balance - by flow cytometry
Flow Cytometric Bead Array (CBA), useful for
among others:
- in disorders of pregnancy
- preparing for pregnancy from in vitro fertilization
Cytokines are a group of more than 100 proteins produced by
leukocytes, responsible for the immune system.
Lymphocytes Th1 and
Th2 are varieties of Th helper lymphocytes
Th1 lymphocytes are responsible for the body's cellular (immune) response
of the body, while Th2 humoral (immune) response
Disruption of the ratio of Th1 and TH2 cytokines can be associated with many
inflammatory conditions.
An assessment of Th1/Th2 cytokines is often performed in cases of
recurrent miscarriages and during preparation for in
vitro.
The study of cytokines is performed by CBA - flow cytometry
flow cytometry.
