Introducing Olink Flex: Cytokine Storm Panel
16 Aug 2023Cytokine storm syndromes can be triggered by pathogens or multiple immune events, and are characterized by dysregulated systemic inflammation with excessive levels of circulating cytokines. Circulating cytokine monitoring has emerged as a critically informative, noninvasive tool. Analyzing cytokine signatures, rather than individual proteins, provides a more detailed and accurate picture of the underlying biology. Here, Olink presents the Olink® Flex Cytokine Storm panel, which includes pro- and anti-inflammatory molecules that are frequently monitored and found to be elevated in this pathological condition. It also features highly relevant cytokines that are present at low levels, thus often absent in most commercially available panels.

BiomarkersBiomarkers are biological markers which can be measured and evaluated to indicate a biological state. The use of biomarkers in research and diagnosis can indicate a normal or disease state or drug response of cells / tissues. Biomarkers include genetic markers, cell surface markers such as antigens, antibodies or receptors and secreted molecules such as cytokines. An assay system is required for identification of biomarkers. :CytokinesCytokines are signaling proteins critical for cell communication in the immune system. They regulate inflammation, immune responses, and cell growth. Cytokine research is vital for understanding disease mechanisms and developing therapies.
