IL-36 beta/IL-1F8 Protein, Human (His)
IL-36 beta (IL-1F8), a subform of IL-36 family, belongs to IL-1 superfamily. IL-36 beta mediates inflammatory response. L-36 beta binds to IL-36R and recruits the co-receptor IL-1RacP, and thereby activating NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways, but the activation requires N-terminal cleavage by neutrophil granule-derived proteases. IL-36 beta/IL-1F8 Protein, Human (His) is a recombinant human IL-36 beta with N terminal His tag, which is produced in E. coli.

Biological Activity
Description
IL-36 beta (IL-1F8), a subform of IL-36 family, belongs to IL-1 superfamily. IL-36 beta mediates inflammatory response. L-36 beta binds to IL-36R and recruits the co-receptor IL-1RacP, and thereby activating NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways, but the activation requires N-terminal cleavage by neutrophil granule-derived proteases[1][2]. IL-36 beta/IL-1F8 Protein, Human (His) is a recombinant human IL-36 beta with N terminal His tag, which is produced in E. coli.
Background
IL-36 beta (IL-1F8), a subform of IL-36 family, belongs to IL-1 superfamily. IL-36 beta is expressed in monocytes, T/B-lymphocytes, bone-marrow, tonsils, heart, lung, testis, colon, neuron cells, glial cells[3].
The sequence of amino acids in IL-36 beta differs in different species. Human IL-36 beta shares <40% aa sequence identity with mouse.
L-36 beta binds to IL-36R and recruits the co-receptor IL-1RAcP. So that heterodimeric signaling complex brings Toll/IL-1R (TIR) domains of the 2 receptor chains in close proximity, and thereby activating NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways[1]. But the activation requires N-terminal cleavage at Arg5 by neutrophil granule-derived proteases, such as cathepsin G, elastase and proteinase-3[2]. IL-36β plays a role cell maturation in human bone marrow mononuclear cells and DC cells. IL-36β is associated with the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The serum levels of IL36β are usually higher in patients with IBD[4].
IL-36 beta is a pro-inflammatory factor. IL-36 beta mediates inflammatory response through the activation of NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathway[2].
In Vitro
IL-36 beta (human) (1 μg/mL, 24 h) induces the gene expression of themselves and other family members in keratinocytes[5].
IL-36 beta (human) (1-5 ng/mL) increases IL-36R mRNA level in human blood lymphocytes[6].
IL-36 beta (human) (1 ng/mL, 48 h) induces early proliferation of IL-36R expressing CD4+ T helper cells[6].
