Product Summary for Human CCL17/TARC Quantikine ELISA Kit

The Quantikine Human TARC Immunoassay kit is a 3.5 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure TARC in cell culture supernates, serum, and plasma. It contains E. coli-expressed recombinant human TARC and antibodies raised against the recombinant factor. It has been shown to accurately quantitate recombinant human TARC. Results obtained using natural human TARC showed linear curves that were parallel to the standard curves obtained using the recombinant Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for natural human TARC.

Sample TypeMean (pg/mL)Range (pg/mL)
Serume (n=66)*33171-848
EDTA plasma (n=34)*13435-285
Heparin plasma (n=35)11133-226
*Two serum samples and one EDTA plasma sample measured substantially higher and are not included in this range.

Cell Culture Supernates - Human peripheral blood  mononuclear cells (5 x 106 cells/mL) were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 5% fetal bovine serum, 50 μM beta -mercaptoethanol, 2 mM L-glutamine, 100 U/mL penicillin, and 100 μg/mL streptomycin sulfate. The cells were cultured unstimulated or stimulated with 10 μg/mL PHA. Aliquots of the cell culture supernates were removed on days 1 and 5 and assayed for levels of human TARC.

Background: CCL17/TARC

CCL17/TARC is a chemokine that interacts with CCR4 and CCR8 to induce the chemoattraction of activated Th2 cells, basophils, and NK cells. It is produced by thymic dendritic cells, lymph node dendritic cells, monocytes, CD4+ T cells, keratinocytes, fibroblasts, bronchial epithelial cells, and Reed-Sternberg cells. CCL17 promotes Th2 cell recruitment to sites of inflammation and induces platelet aggregation and degranulation.

    Importance of serum „Thymus and Activation-Regulated Chemokine (TARC) determination in classical Hodgkin lymphoma’s (cHL) patients Thymus and Activation-Regulated Chemokine (TARC or CCL17) is highly expressed by Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg cells and secreted into the serum. Therefore it can be a useful tumor marker of classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL). Our aim has been to study the value of serum TARC concentrations in the course of treatment, and follow up in patients with cHL. We enrolled 613 patients diagnosed with cHL, who were treated by the National Institute of Oncology, Hungary, between 2011 and 2018. Serum TARC levels were determined with a quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique (RnD Systems, Biotechne, Minneapolis, MN). Measurements were carried out in 3 month intervals following diagnosis, and 6 month intervals after 3 years. In 241 cases, serum TARC concentrations were determined before therapy, as well. Total number of measurements taken were 2015. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed for comparison of healthy controls (n=168) and patients with active disease status before treatment (n=241). The cut-off value was 637 pg/ml with 90.9% sensitivity and 98.2% specificity. During follow-ups the median serum TARC value was 14350 pg/ml in patients with active disease status. In case of complete remission it was 401 pg/ml. ROC curve analysis of active versus complete remission groups showed a high 85.6% sensitivity and 93.7% specificity with a 936 pg/ml cut-off value. Our data confirmed the usefulness of TARC determination in the course of treatment and follow-up. TARC may be a potential marker for early response assessment and may be able to predict potential relapse of the disease. Determination of serum TARC concentrations with high sensitivity and cost-efficacy, is highly recommened for monitoring and at diagnosis of cHL patients.
