The AS10 antibody reacts with human interleukin-1β (IL-1β) which is also known as endogenous pyrogen (EP), leukocyte endogenous mediator (LEM), mononuclear cell factor (MCF) and lymphocyte-activating factor (LAF). IL-1β is a proinflammatory cytokine that is synthesized as a precursor of 31kDa and is converted intracellularly to the mature 17.5kDa form, after cleavage by the IL-1β-converting enzyme (ICE). In healthy individuals, IL-1β is secreted non-constitutively by blood monocytes, tissue macrophages and dendritic cells. IL-1β is also constitutively expressed in the human hypothalamus. Many malignant tumors express IL-1β as part of their neoplastic nature. The immunogen used to generate the AS10 hybridoma was recombinant human E. Coli-expressed recombinant IL-1β. The AS10 antibody does not cross react with mouse IL-1β. This is a neutralizing antibody.
