We hope you had a relaxing Memorial Day weekend. We're excited to announce our recently launched LEGENDplex™ Mouse Cytokine Release Syndrome Panel which simultaneously measures 13 different biomarkers associated with cytokine storm and viral-induced inflammation.

As May comes to a close and labs begin to open again we will be winding down this COVID-focused eLearning series. We will be back next week with a new format and new content. In the meantime, please enjoy our three-part series on inflammation.

WATCH: Inflammatory Cytokines in COVID-19
(Approx. 5 minutes)

 

Cytokines help cells carry out a variety of important immune functions. However, an uncontrolled inflammatory response, as seen in some COVID-19 patients, can cause harmful effects like cytokine storm. In this video, we discuss key inflammatory cytokines, like IL-1 beta and IL-6, and their role in COVID-19 progression.
