Bio-activity : |
IL-1β (Interleukin-1 beta) is a proinflammatory and immunoregulatory cytokine involved in a variety of cellular activities. It is produced by activated macrophages as a proprotein, and then proteolytically processed to an active form. It has been reported that IL-1β-induced IL-6 production is mediated by both PI3K and IRAK4 in A549 cells. To detect the bioactivity of IL-1β, A549 cells were seeded into 24-well plate at a density of 1x105cells/mL, and allowed to attach overnight before treated with or without certain concentrations (1ng/mL, 10ng/mL) of IL1-β for 4h and IL-6 levels in the cell supernatant were determined by ELISA. |
