Cytokines are a large category of signaling molecules (~5–20 kDa) acting as immunomodulating agents for autocrine signaling, paracrine signaling, and endocrine signaling.
These small proteins are produced by a broad range of cells, which include macrophages, B-Cells, T-Cells, basophils, mast cells, etc. The main cytokines consist of the ILs (Interleukins), the IFNs (Interferons), the TNFs (Tumor Necrosis Factors alpha and beta), and the growth hormone.
The high interaction among cytokines often generates signal cascades leading to additive, synergistic, or antagonistic effects. Research has identified cytokines playing critical roles in regulating immunity, inflammation, hematopoiesis, neurogenesis, embryogenesis, oncogenesis, etc.

Why Boster?
Get better results with Boster!
Boster takes great measures to ensure product quality and to provide our customers with comprehensive data upfront. Our antibodies are validated using WB, IHC, and flow cytometry against a panel of over 250 tissues and un-transfected cell lines to ensure high affinity and crystal-clear IHC stains. In addition, we also validate our antibodies in a quantitative fashion by testing them on known quantities of recombinant proteins so that you know what to expect (e.g. if there is 1ng, 2.5ng or 5ng of the target protein in the sample). Every product is covered by the Boster Quality Guarantee, click below to learn more.
