Human IFN Alpha All Subtype ELISA Kit (Serum, Plasma, TCM)
Kits
Description
Interferons (IFNs) are a family of mammalian cytokines initially
characterized by their ability to inhibit viral infection. They are
synthesized and secreted by most cell types in response to
pathogens. In addition to their antiviral properties, IFNs have also
been shown to exhibit anti-proliferative, immunomodulatory, and
many other activities.
In humans, IFN-α consists of a group of proteins that are greater
than 85% homologous by amino acid sequence. Numerous
individual human IFN-α subtypes have been identified; many
display different properties. It remains unclear why there are
multiple IFN-α subtypes. A variety of studies suggested they
possess overlapping but also unique sets of biological activities.
