Background
IL-1beta (Interleukin-1 beta, IL-1b) is a potent inflammatory cytokine which has been well studied.  Produced as a precursor, especially in myeloid cells and monocytes/macrophages, IL-1beta is processed by cleavage with caspase-1, or ICE, from the 31 kD inactive precursor to the 18kD active mature form secreted from cells as an end-result of the inflammasome complex and activation sequence (1, 2).  In response to various TLR ligands, myeloid cells or macrophages activate NLRP3 inflammasomes and secrete IL-1beta.  The rate of IL-1beta processing has been correlated to redox state or levels of ROS generated (3, 4).  IL-1beta is directly involved in a variety of diseases -–auto-inflammatory diseases, acute inflammatory attacks such as ischemic injury in myocardial infarcts or in chronic inflammatory processes of atherosclerosis or Type 2 diabetes (5, 6).  The ability to detect and quantitate active IL-1beta is critical for understanding how to regulate its activity as a therapeutic target.

Antigen
Full-length recombinant human IL-1beta protein was used as immunogen for this antibody.

IL-1beta Antibody

Western blot analysis of IL-1beta in A) full-length recombinant protein and B) human spleen lysate using IL-1beta antibody.

IMGENEX’s goat anti-mouse Ig HRP secondary antibody (20101) and PicoTect ECL substrate solution (10087K) were used for this test.
