Produced by activated macrophages, IL-1 stimulates thymocyte proliferation by inducing IL-2 release, B-cell maturation and proliferation, and fibroblast growth factor activity. IL-1 proteins are involved in the inflammatory response, being identified as endogenous pyrogens, and are reported to stimulate the release of prostaglandin and collagenase from synovial cells. Belongs to the IL-1 family. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa41-272 of zebrafish Interleukin 1, fused to 10xHis-Tag at N-terminal and Myc-Tag at C-terminal, expressed in E. coli.
