Target Background

Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha), also known as lymphotoxin and cachectin, is a pleiotropic cytokine. TNF alpha is a smaller cytokine with a molecular weight of 26 kDa (transmembrane) and 17 kDa (soluble) that binds to the same receptors producing a vast array of effects similar to those of TNF-beta. Both TNF-alpha and TNF-beta share 30% amino acid homology and have similar biological activities. TNF-alpha is produced primarily by monocytes, neutrophils and macrophages. It is found in synovial cells and macrophages in the tissues. TNF-alpha and TNF-beta can modulate many immune and inflammatory functions, while having the ability to inhibit tumor growth. Target tumor cells must express TNF receptors 1 (55 kDa) and 2 (75 kDa) to be killed, with the p55 receptor mediating the cytotoxic response.

    We've been looking for an ELISA kit that detects TNFa in tissue lysates for ages. We used this kit with mouse brain tissue homogenized in a lysis buffer containing 0.25% SDS and diluted the samples 1:5 as recommended by the manufacturer protocol and got beautiful results.

    This Elisa kit is the way to go! You can even use just half the amount of the antibodies described in the manufacturer's protocol.

    This kit gave me great results with LPS-inflammed RAW264.7 cells supernatants. The instructions were clear and detailed and I like that you can use just half a plate and keep the other strips for another time. I would strongly recommend.

    I used the kit for cell culture supernatant analysis. The dilution times need yourself to investigate ahead and then do lots of experiments. Good products.

    Mouse spleen lysates and with denervated muscle tissue was a sample for use of the kit. There's very little reaction with lysates but it exists. From my experience, this kit works well for cell culture supernatants.

    The kit was packaged in an organized and clear manner, and it was easy to walk through each step of the procedure. I used the mouse IL-6, VEGF, and TNF-alpha kits for plasma as well as homogenized muscle samples. Each worked well, and I would be happy to use them again.
