IL-1 Ra Detection Service

Interleukin 1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) is a naturally occurring inhibitor of interleukin 1 (IL1) activity, which has the effect of inhibiting inflammation. Creative BioMart Biomarker provides sensitive and accurate IL-1Ra detection services for scientists both in academia and industry. Efficient and reliable testing services, and reasonable and preferential prices can help customers accelerate the progress of related research.

IL-1 Ra

IL-1Ra is a glycosylated protein composed of 152 amino acids and is a member of the IL1 family. The IL-1 family initially contained only IL-1α and IL-1β, and later expanded into a family containing 11 members (IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-1Ra, IL-18, IL-36α, IL-36β, IL-36γ, IL-36Ra, IL-37, IL-38, IL-33). IL-1 was originally thought to be a lymphocyte activating factor, but it was later found to have multiple effects, including inducing inflammation, raising the body temperature, and stimulating T and B cell proliferation. IL-1α and IL-1β produce a 31 kDa precursor under stress or cell injury and are subject to proteolysis by specific proteases during maturation. IL-1α and IL-1β use the same membrane receptor (IL-1R) to trigger signal transduction pathways, leading to the activation of NF-κB or AP-1. The IL-1 mediated inflammatory response can be eliminated by the natural inhibitor IL-1Ra. IL-1Ra binds to two IL-1 proteins in the IL-1 protein family. When IL-1Ra binds to IL-1R, it does not activate the signaling pathway and can specifically inhibit the activities of IL-1α and IL-1β. Therefore, naturally occurring IL-1Ra has an important effect on the human body, and its lack or low concentration is related to spontaneous diseases and the severity of the diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, destructive arthritis, etc. Researchers have conducted research on the recombinant form of IL-1Ra (Anakinra) for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (CAPS), autoimmune hearing loss, pre-multiple myeloma, macrophage activation syndrome (MAS), etc.
