LEGENDplex™: Bead-assisted multiplex cytokine profiling by flow cytometry.

Over the past two decades there have been tremendous advances in our understanding of tumor immunology, which have in turn led to new and exciting immunology-based therapeutics. However, further research is needed into the dynamics and regulation of the immune response in the tumor microenvironment in order to achieve the full potential of these agents in treating all cancer patients. Defining the role of cytokines, chemokines, and other soluble mediators will be essential to this endeavor.
