Quality Description
ACRO's Research-grade products are suitable for a wide range of cell culture applications, particularly for research use in academic institutions. These products are sterilized by filtration before lyophilization. Typical specifications include endotoxin levels of <0.01 EU/μg and purities >95%. Biological activity is calibrated against WHO/NIBSC standards when available.
ACRO's Premium-grade (Pre-GMP) products are characterized by their high quality and enhanced safety profiles, making them ideal for early-stage discovery and manufacturing processes in cell therapy companies. A key advantage is their seamless transition to corresponding GMP-grade versions. Biological activity is calibrated against WHO/NIBSC standards when available. Typical specifications include endotoxin levels of <0.01 EU/μg and purities >95%. In addition, rigorous testing is conducted to ensure the absence of mycoplasma, HCD, and HCP, thereby guaranteeing product safety.
Background
Interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) is also known as catabolin, is a cytokine protein that in humans is encoded by the IL1B gene. IL-1β precursor is cleaved by caspase 1 (interleukin 1 beta convertase). Cytosolic thiol protease cleaves the product to form mature IL-1 beta.
IL1β are structurally related polypeptides that share approximately 21% amino acid (aa) identity in human. Both proteins are produced by a wide variety of cells in response to inflammatory agents, infections, or microbial endotoxins. While IL1α and IL1β are regulated independently, they bind to the same receptor and exert identical biological effects.
IL-1β is a member of the interleukin 1 cytokine family. This cytokine is produced by activated macrophages as a proprotein, which is proteolytically processed to its active form by caspase 1 (CASP1/ICE). This cytokine is an important mediator of the inflammatory response, and is involved in a variety of cellular activities, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. The induction of cyclooxygenase-2 (PTGS2/COX2) by this cytokine in the central nervous system (CNS) is found to contribute to inflammatory pain hypersensitivity. This gene and eight other interleukin 1 family genes form a cytokine gene cluster on chromosome 2.
