Our broad portfolio consists of multiplex panels that allow you to choose, within the panel, analytes that best meet your needs. On a separate tab you can choose the premixed cytokine format or a single plex kit.
Cell Signaling Kits & MAPmates™
Choose fixed kits that allow you to explore entire pathways or processes. Or design your own kits by choosing single plex MAPmates™, following the provided guidelines.
The following MAPmates™ should not be plexed together: -MAPmates™ that require a different assay buffer -Phospho-specific and total MAPmate™ pairs, e.g. total GSK3β and GSK3β (Ser 9) -PanTyr and site-specific MAPmates™, e.g. Phospho-EGF Receptor and phospho-STAT1 (Tyr701) -More than 1 phospho-MAPmate™ for a single target (Akt, STAT3) -GAPDH and β-Tubulin cannot be plexed with kits or MAPmates™ containing panTyr

Several cytokines regulate thyroid function and may be involved in the pathogenesis of thyroid disorders, including euthyroid sick syndrome. Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), a neuroimmune pleiotropic cytokine, was measured to assess its role in hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid function. Mean circulating serum LIF levels in 10 hypothyroid patients [TSH, 23+/-0.5 mIU/L (mean+/-SEM); free T4, 0.77+/-0.1 ng/dL] was 0.29+/-0.04 ng/mL, 145% higher (P < 0.04) than in 20 normal subjects (LIF, 0.20+/-0.02 ng/mL; TSH, 2.23+/-0.21 mIU/L; free T4, 1.23+/-0.04 ng/dL) but was not different from those in 10 hyperthyroid patients (LIF, 0.21+/-0.03 ng/mL; TSH, 0.01+/-0.00 mIU/L; free T4, 3.63+/-0.51 ng/dL). Serum LIF concentrations linearly correlated with serum TSH in the 40 samples (r = 0.58, P < 0.001). When T4 (1-8 microg/kg x day) was administered to cynomolgus monkeys with methimazole-induced hypothyroidism, serum T4 and T3 levels increased appropriately, and TSH and LIF concentrations decreased. When methimazole was given alone, both serum TSH (146+/-30 mIU/L) and LIF (8.84+/-0.49 ng/mL) were markedly induced. When methimazole together with T4 (>2 microg/kg x day) was administered, both serum TSH (7.5+/-1.2 mIU/L) and LIF (6.22+/-0.31 ng/mL) were lowered (P < 0.01). Monkey serum LIF levels and log TSH levels also correlated (r = 0.72, P < 0.01). Cultured thyroid carcinoma cells produced LIF (9.2 ng/10(6) cells/48 h). TSH (100 mIU/mL) and interleukin (IL)-6 (10 nmol/L) stimulated in vitro LIF secretion from the cells by 170+/-12% (P < 0.05) and 261+/-8% (P < 0.05), respectively. Dexamethasone (1 micromol/L) inhibited basal LIF concentration by 83% (P < 0.05), whereas TSH and IL-6 stimulated LIF by 52% (P = 0.04) and 42% (P = 0.03), respectively. However, using Northern blot analysis, we could not observe induction of LIF mRNA by TSH, suggesting that LIF regulation by TSH may be due to stimulation of secretion. The results show that the thyroid gland is a source of LIF production; TSH, IL-6, and glucocorticoid influence thyroid cell LIF expression. The correlation between TSH and LIF suggests that LIF may participate in the physiologic regulation of hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid function.
