IL-1 beta Protein, Mouse (His, Avi)

IL-1 beta Protein is a potent pro-inflammatory cytokine that was initially discovered as the major endogenous pyrogen. It has various effects on immune cells, such as inducing prostaglandin synthesis, activating neutrophils, promoting T-cell activation and cytokine production, stimulating B-cell activation and antibody production, and increasing fibroblast proliferation and collagen production. IL-1 beta Protein also plays a role in promoting the differentiation of Th17 cells and works synergistically with IL12 to induce the synthesis of IFNG by Th1 cells. Moreover, it contributes to angiogenesis by inducing VEGF production in collaboration with TNF and IL6. IL-1 beta Protein is involved in the transduction of inflammation downstream of pyroptosis, where its mature form is specifically released into the extracellular environment through the gasdermin-D (GSDMD) pore. It exists as a monomer and interacts with MEFV, as well as integrins ITGAV:ITGBV and ITGA5:ITGB1, which are required for IL1B signaling. IL-1 beta Protein also interacts with the cargo receptor TMED10 and HSP90AB1 and HSP90B1, which facilitate the translocation of cargo into the ERGIC.
