Gene Information

human ... IL1B(3553)

General description

Interleukin-1β (IL1β) is produced by activated macrophages. It is synthesized as pro-IL-1β which is changed to active form IL-1β with the help of pro-inflammatory protease caspase-1. IL-1β belongs to the IL-1 gene family. It is a proinflammatory cytokine. The gene is mapped to human chromosome 2q14.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human IL1B

Application

Anti-IL1B antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 1μg/mL.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Interleukins are proinflammatory cytokines produced on cell injury or trauma. There are two closely related types of interleukins produced by the cell, IL-1α and IL-1β that are produced by the activation of NF-κB transcription factor in response to bacterial infection or LPS. Both IL-1α and IL-1β exert their cellular effects by signalling through IL-1 receptor type 1. IL-1β has pleiotropic activities and is protective against infections by recruitment of neutrophils to the infection site, secretion of cytokines and chemokines and activation of adhesion molecules. IL-1β overproduction has been implicated in many auto-immune and allergic disorders such as Cryopirin-associated periodic syndromes, Muckle-Wells syndrome and skin lesions.

The inflammasome is an important innate immune pathway that regulates at least two host responses protective against infections: (1) secretion of the proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-18 and (2) induction of pyroptosis, a form of cell death. Inflammasomes, of which

All biological agents currently used for reducing TNFalpha activity in disease are neutralization strategies; however, there are several strategies for reducing interleukin (IL)-1 activities: the IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra), anti-IL-1beta monoclonal antibodies, the IL-1 Trap, IL-1 receptor type I antibodies
