BALB/c mice were immunized i.p. with hen eggwhite lysozyme (HEL) in incomplete Freund's adjuvant and pertussis toxin. On day 21 after immunization, mouse spleen cells were restimulated in vitro with HEL for 15 hours.

Detailed product information

Background information

Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) is predominantly secreted by activated CD8

memory and effector T cells as well as by NK cells. It is mainly involved in the regulation of inflammatory immune responses. These T1 types of immune mechanisms are effective against intracellular pathogens and tumors and can be involved in immunological disorders, such as autoimmune reactions.

Downstream applications

The Mouse IFN-γ Secretion Assay was used to analyze the sequential production of cytokines by individual staphylococcal enterotoxin B-activated T helper lymphocytes
