 Recombinant Murine Interleukin-1α
 IL1A
 Interleukin 1α 
 Interleukin-1 alpha (IL1A) is a nonsecreted pro-inflammatory cytokine produced in a variety of cells including monocytes, tissue macrophages, keratinocytes and other epithelial cells. Both IL1A and IL1B bind to the same receptor and have similar biological properties. These cytokines have a broad range of activities including stimulation of thymocyte proliferation by inducing IL2 release, B-cell maturation and proliferation, mitogenic FGF-like activity and the ability to stimulate the release of prostaglandin and collagenase from synovial cells. However, whereas IL1B is a secreted cytokine, IL1A is predominantly a cell associated cytokine.
