Biochem/physiol Actions

Interleukin 1 β (IL-1β) stimulates the production of endogenous 92 kDa gelatinase (matrix metalloproteinases 9 (MMP-9)) and tissue inhibitors of MMP (TIMP -1). It is a proinflammatory cytokine that induces various acute and chronic inflammation. Therefore, IL-1β can be considered as a potential therapeutic target for disease associated with fibrosis and tissue remodeling. IL-1β brings neutrophil and macrophage to the site of infection. Over expression of IL-1β in synovial fluid contributes to the pathogenesis of synovitis and degenerative changes of the cartilaginous tissue and bone of the temporomandibular joint. Mutations in IL-1β gene leads to renal manifestations and renal sequelae in Henoch-Schonlein purpura (HSP).
