Typical Testing Data/Standard Curve (for reference only)
Background: Interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1alpha) is a protein of the interleukin-1 family that in humans is encoded by the IL1A gene which spans 10.2 kb and has 7 exons. It is 1 of 2 structurally distinct forms of IL1, the other being IL1B, this two proteins are synthesized by a variety of cell types, including activated macrophages, keratinocytes, stimulated B lymphocytes, and fibroblasts, and are potent mediators of inflammation and immunity. IL1A may play a role in the genesis of inflammation by augmenting the transcription of proinflammatory genes, a mechanism not affected by extracellular inhibitors. IL1A has been administered to patients during receiving autologous bone marrow transplantation.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the interleukin 1 cytokine family. This cytokine is a pleiotropic cytokine involved in various immune responses, inflammatory processes, and hematopoiesis. This cytokine is produced by monocytes and macrophages as a proprotein, which is proteolytically processed and released in response to cell injury, and thus induces apoptosis. This gene and eight other interleukin 1 family genes form a cytokine gene cluster on chromosome 2. It has been suggested that the polymorphism of these genes is associated with rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer's disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
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.
Subunit structure: Monomer.
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.
Domain: The similarity among the IL-1 precursors suggests that the amino ends of these proteins serve some as yet undefined function.
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the IL-1 family.

Product Notes
The Mouse IL-1alpha il1a (Catalog #AAA355407) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA355407 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse IL-1alpha. AAA Biotech's IL-1alpha can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Quantitative sELISA (EIA). For quantitative detection of IL-1α in mouse serum, body fluids, tissue lysates or cell culture supernates. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the IL-1alpha il1a for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "IL-1alpha, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
