I am working on lymphocyte transformation and would want assay Th1 cytokines. I have an option of choosing between Tnf alpha or beta?
Use TNF-beta for TH1 cytokines
TNF-beta will be best, for better confirmation IL-2 along with TNF-beta will further establish Th1 dominance.
Both TNF alpha and TNF beta are Th1 effector function. The differences in the biological activity between TNF alpha and TNF beta are based on different abilities for binding to the target cells.
Inteferon gamma?
If a sample size is 300 and 5 Questionnaires are discarded due to error, are the 5 discarded questionairee not meant to be replaced? Just curious
