产品描述 概述IL-1RA was initially called the IL-1 inhibitor which is encoded by the IL1RN gene and it is a member of the interleukin 1 cytokine family. IL-1RA is secreted by various types of cells including immune cells, epithelial cells, and adipocytes. IL-RA has functions of inhibiting the activity of interleukin-1 by binding to receptor IL1R1 and preventing its association with the co-receptor IL1RAP for signaling. IL-1RA is also used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disease in which IL-1 plays a key role. The rat IL-1RA is a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 152 amino acids and it has been shown to block the inflammatory responses induced by IL-1 both in vitro and in vivo. Rat IL-1RA shares 89 % and 73 % a.a. sequence homology with murine and human IL-1RA. 使用说明This material is offered by Novin Biotech for research, laboratory or further evaluation purposes.
