Extra Details:
IL-1a is a non-secreted, proinflammatory cytokine produced in a variety of cells, including monocytes, tissue macrophages, keratinocytes and other epithelial cells. Both IL-1a and IL-1b bind to the same receptor and have similar, if not identical, biological properties. These cytokines have a broad range of activities including the stimulation of thymocyte proliferation by inducing IL-2 release, B cell maturation and proliferation, mitogenic FGF-like activity, and the release of prostaglandin and collagenase from synovial cells. However, whereas IL-1b is a secreted cytokine, IL-1a is predominantly a cell-associated cytokine. Recombinant mouse IL-1a is a 17.9kD protein containing 156 amino acid residues.
