IL-1 beta (Interleukin-1 beta) is produced in response to inflammatory agents, infections, or microbial endotoxins. It plays a central role in immune and inflammatory responses, bone remodeling, fever, carbohydrate metabolism, and GH/IGF-I physiology. IL-1 beta dysregulation is implicated in many pathological conditions including sepsis, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, acute and chronic myelogenous leukemia, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, atherosclerosis, neuronal injury, and aging-related diseases. Intracellular cleavage of the IL-1 beta precursor by Caspase-1/ICE is a key step in the inflammatory response. IL-1 beta binds to IL-1 RI and IL-1 RII. The IL-1 receptor accessory protein (IL-1 RAcP) associates with IL-1 RI and is required for IL-1 RI signal transduction, and IL-1ra is a secreted molecule that functions as a competitive inhibitor of IL-1 bioactivity.

Recovery for Human Pro-IL-1 beta/IL-1F2 Quantikine ELISA Kit
The recovery of pro-IL-1 beta spiked to three different levels throughout the assay in various matrices was evaluated.
| Sample Type | Average % Recovery | Range % |
|---|---|---|
| Cell Culture Media (n=5) | 108 | 99-115 |
| EDTA Plasma (n=5) | 103 | 95-108 |
| Heparin Plasma (n=5) | 101 | 92-109 |
| Serum (n=5) | 102 | 97-108 |
Linearity
To assess the linearity of the assay, five samples spiked with high concentrations of pro-IL-1 beta were diluted in the appropriate Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.

Protocols
View specific protocols for Human Pro-IL-1 beta/IL-1F2 Quantikine ELISA Kit (DLBP00):
- Prepare all reagents, standard dilutions, and samples as directed in the product insert.
- Remove excess microplate strips from the plate frame, return them to the foil pouch containing the desiccant pack, and reseal.
- Add 50 µL of Assay Diluent to each well.
- Add 200 µL of Standard, control, or sample to each well. Cover with a plate sealer, and incubate at room temperature for 1.5 hours.
- Aspirate each well and wash, repeating the process twice for a total of 3 washes.
- Add 100 µL of Antiserum to each well. Cover with a new plate sealer, and incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Aspirate and wash 3 times.
- Add 100 µL of Conjugate to each well. Cover with a new plate sealer, and incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Aspirate and wash 3 times.
