CytoDX | Cytokine Response Profile
Diagnostic Solutions LaboratoryWhat this laboratory test evaluates
Alterations in the immune system that result in chronic inflammation and autoimmunity have been linked to a wide range of health conditions and diseases. Cytokines are important mediators of many immune responses, and imbalances in cytokines have been shown to play key roles on chronic inflammation and autoimmunity. Most cytokines can be generally characterized as pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory, depending on their primary effects on immune responses. Immune responses are often further characterized by the type of T helper (Th) cell involved.
CytoDx® Panel Enables Practitioners to Assess Systemic Immune Status:
• Pro-inflammatory / anti-inflammatory cytokine balance
• Th1, Th2, Th17 and T-regulatory cytokine responses
• Efficacy of immune balancing and modulating approaches
Additional test information
The gut microbiome plays a critical role in regulating immune function, and the Gut-Immune connection is widely recognized. Cytokines are small proteins crucial in controlling the activity of immune system cells. They are important mediators in many immune responses, and imbalances in cytokines have been shown to play a key role in chronic inflammation and autoimmunity. By providing an assessment of 18 cytokines, this revolutionary profile provides clinicians with powerful insight into a patient’s immune regulatory function, allowing for advanced health assessment and more personalized treatment plans.

How Sunridge uses laboratory information
Sunridge considers the medical question, symptoms, history, medications, prior results, and whether the finding could change care before recommending testing. A laboratory result is not interpreted in isolation and does not establish a diagnosis by itself.
Before requesting this test
Availability, collection requirements, eligibility, and processing estimates can change. Sunridge reviews each request and, when appropriate, creates the order through Fullscript. Follow the current instructions supplied with the approved order.
