IL-1 is a name that designates two pleiotropic cytokines, IL-1 alpha (IL-1F1) and IL-1 beta (IL-1F2), which are the products of distinct genes. IL-1 alpha and IL-1 beta are structurally related polypeptides that share approximately 27% amino acid (aa) identity in porcine. Both proteins are produced by a wide variety of cells in response to inflammatory agents, infections, or microbial endotoxins. While IL-1 alpha and IL-1 beta are regulated independently, they bind to the same receptor and exert identical biological effects. IL-1 RI binds directly to IL-1 alpha or IL-1 beta and then associates with IL-1 R accessory protein (IL-1 R3/IL-1 R AcP) to form a high-affinity receptor complex that is competent for signal transduction. IL-1 RII has high affinity for IL-1 beta but functions as a decoy receptor and negative regulator of IL-1 beta activity. IL-1ra functions as a competitive antagonist by preventing IL-1 alpha and IL-1 beta from interacting with IL-1 RI (1-4). The porcine IL-1 beta cDNA encodes a 267 aa precursor. A 114 aa propeptide is cleaved intracellularly by the cysteine protease IL-1 beta -converting enzyme (Caspase-1/ICE) to generate the active cytokine (5, 6). The 17 kDa mature porcine IL-1 beta shares 63%-70% aa sequence identity with canine, cotton rat, equine, feline, human, mouse, rat, and rhesus IL-1 beta.

Cell Proliferation Induced by IL‑1 beta /IL‑1F2 and Neutrali-zation by Porcine IL‑1 beta /IL‑1F2 Antibody.
Recombinant Porcine IL-1 beta /IL-1F2 (Catalog # 681-PI) stimulates proliferation in the D10.G4.1 mouse helper T cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line). Proliferation elicited by Recombinant Porcine IL-1 beta /IL-1F2 (20 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Goat Anti-Porcine IL-1 beta / IL-1F2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF681). The ND50 is typically 4-20 µg/mL.Detection of Porcine IL-1 beta /IL-1F2 by Western Blot
Silencing of TREM2 increases the production of inflammatory cytokines and type I interferons.(A) PAMs were transfected with siNC or siTREM2-1 for 24 h, gene expression of IL-1 beta, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-alpha, IFN-alpha, and IFN-beta are shown using qRT-PCR. (B) Protein expression of IL-1 beta, IL-10, IL-4, and TNF-alpha are shown, as detected by western blot analysis in the TREM2 knockdown assay. GAPDH is shown as an internal control. (C) PAMs were transfected with siNC or siTREM2-1 for 24 h and infected with PPRSV (MOI = 1). Cells were collected at the indicated periods. Proinflammatory cytokine (IL-1 beta, IL-6, and IL-8) and type I interferons (IFN-alpha and IFN-beta ) mRNA expression is shown, as detected by qRT-PCR. (D) PAMs were treated as described in A and infected with PRRSV at different MOIs (0.5 or 1), transcription of IL-1 beta, TNF-alpha, and IFN-beta is shown, as measured by qRT-PCR. Data are representative of the results of three independent experiments (mean ± SE). Significant differences compared to the control group are denoted by * (P <.05), ** (P <.01) and *** (P <.001).
