Mouse IL-1beta Platinum ELISA

Description: The mouse IL-1beta ELISA is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative detection of mouse IL-1beta.
Platinum Kits undergo stringent in-house development, manufacture and quality-validation processes ensuring highest possible product performance and optimal lot-to-lot consistency.

IL-1beta is a pro-inflamatory cytokine and is expressed by many cells including macrophage, NK cells, monocytes, and neutrophils. It belongs to the IL-1 family cluster. Associated activities with IL-1 are the induction of Prostaglandin E2 by synovial cells and release of collagenase with resulting destruction of cartilage and bone resorption.

IL-1, has multiple immunological functions including enhancement of IL-2 production by T cells and activation of B-cells (BAF) and thymocytes.
