Description
Human IL-1 alpha Recombinant Protein Tag Free Lyophilized has been recombinantly produced in E Coli.
Interleukin-1 alpha (IL1 alpha) is a cytokine member of the interleukin-1 family. IL-1 consists of two distinct forms: IL1 alpha and IL1 beta that recognize the same cell surface receptors but are distinct proteins with approximately 25% amino acid sequence identity. IL1 alpha is constitutively produced by epithelial cells and plays an essential role in maintenance of skin barrier function. Upon stimulation, a wide variety of cells including osteoblasts, monocytes, macrophages can be induced to express IL1 alpha. IL1 alpha possesses a wide range of metabolic, physiological, haematopoietic activities, and is critically involved in the regulation of the immune responses and inflammatory responses.
