Function

Potent pro-inflammatory cytokine. Initially discovered as the major endogenous pyrogen, induces prostaglandin synthesis, neutrophil influx and activation, T-cell activation and cytokine production, B-cell activation and antibody production, and fibroblast proliferation and collagen production. Promotes Th17 differentiation of T-cells. Synergizes with IL12/interleukin-12 to induce IFNG synthesis from T-helper 1 (Th1) cells. Plays a role in angiogenesis by inducing VEGF production synergistically with TNF and IL6. Involved in transduction of inflammation downstream of pyroptosis: its mature form is specifically released in the extracellular milieu by passing through the gasdermin-D (GSDMD) pore.

Notes

Mouse IL-1 beta ELISA Kit ab197742 is a rapid single-wash 90-min ELISA kit to measure cell culture extracts, cell culture supernatant, tissue extracts, urine, serum and plasma. This SimpleStep ELISA® sensitivity is 1 pg/mL.

How the assay works

SimpleStep ELISA® employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details.

Assay Specificity

This kit recognizes both native and recombinant mouse IL-1 beta protein in serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatant, cell and tissue extract samples only. Mouse brain, kidney, liver and lung homogenates were tested but no signal was detected. Plasma (EDTA) and plasma (heparin) samples have not been tested with this kit.

Mouse IL-1 beta ELISA Kit ab197742 protocol summary:

1. Mix: add samples/standards to the wells together with the capture and detector antibody cocktail. Incubate for 1 hr at room temperature
2. Wash
3. Add TMB development solution - incubate for 10 min
4. Add stop solution
5. Read the results on a plate reader at 450nm

How other researchers are using Mouse IL-1 beta ELISA Kit ab197742

Mouse IL-1 beta ELISA Kit ab197742 has been used to study inflammation in various physio-pathological contexts such as liver disease(1), diabetes(2), and Alzheimer's Disease(3).

IL-1 beta (IL-1β) is a 17.5 kDa cytokine protein of the Interleukin 1 family. IL-1β is secreted by macrophages and other cell types in response to inflammatory agents or infection. IL-1β plays a role in a number of cellular processes, including immune responses, bone remodeling, apoptosis and inflammatory pain hypersensitivity.

    RAW264.7 cells were grown in the absence (unstimulated) or presence of 5 μg/mL Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (stimulated) for 48 hours. IL-1 beta was measured in 2-fold diluted cell culture supernatants of unstimulated and LPS stimulated RAW264.7 and cell culture media. Measured values were interpolated from the IL-1 beta Standard Curve diluted in Sample Diluent NS and corrected for dilution factor. Mean of duplicate values +/-SD are graphed: 1.1 pg/mL unstimulated, 83.5 pg/mL stimulated. There was no detectable signal in media.
