|
| Function |
Produced by activated macrophages, IL-1 stimulates thymocyte proliferation by inducing IL-2 release, B-cell maturation and proliferation, and fibroblast growth factor activity. IL-1 proteins are involved in the inflammatory response, being identified as endogenous pyrogens, and are reported to stimulate the release of prostaglandin and collagenase from synovial cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:3920526}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Secreted. Note=The lack of a specific hydrophobic segment in the precursor sequence suggests that IL-1 is released by damaged cells or is secreted by a mechanism differing from that used for other secretory proteins.

| Top Pathways |
Herpes simplex infection, Tuberculosis, Legionellosis, TNF signaling pathway, Salmonella infection
