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

Rat IL-1 beta ELISA Kit (ab255730) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of IL-1 beta protein in cell culture media, cit plasma, edta plasma, and serum. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Rat IL-1 beta with 26.58 pg/ml sensitivity.

SimpleStep ELISA® technology 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. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:

- Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
- High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
- Fully validated in biological samples
- 96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips

A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (Pre-coated 384 well Microplate SimpleStep ELISA® ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

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

    Example of rat IL-1 beta standard curve in Sample Diluent 75BP.

    The IL-1 beta standard curve was prepared as described in Section 10. Raw data values are shown in the table. Background-subtracted data values (mean +/- SD) are graphed.

    Interpolated concentrations of spike IL-1 beta in rat serum, plasma, and cell culture media with 10% fetal bovine serum samples.

    The concentrations of IL-1 beta were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the IL-1 beta standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: serum 50%, plasma (citrate) 50%, plasma (EDTA) 50%, and 1640 RPMI media 50%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2).
