About IL-13 and Fluorescein
IL-13 | This gene encodes an immunoregulatory cytokine produced primarily by activated Th2 cells. This cytokine is involved in several stages of B-cell maturation and differentiation. It up-regulates CD23 and MHC class II expression, and promotes IgE isotype switching of B cells. This cytokine down-regulates macrophage activity, thereby inhibits the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. This cytokine is found to be critical to the pathogenesis of allergen-induced asthma but operates through mechanisms independent of IgE and eosinophils. This gene, IL3, IL5, IL4, and CSF2 form a cytokine gene cluster on chromosome 5q, with this gene particularly close to IL4. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] | |

Fluorescein | Fluorescein is an organic fluorophore first synthesized by Aldolf Bayer in 1871. FITC, an amine-reactive derivative, is also a commonly used name for this dye. It has an excitation peak at 494 nm and an emission peak at 512 nm. |
