Truncated Chicken Interleukin-1β with Increased Biologic Activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Chicken interleukin-1β (ChIL-1β) is synthesized as a precursor molecule that unlike its mammalian counterpart, lacks a typical caspase-1 cleavage site. Therefore, it was unclear if proteolytic cleavage of ChIL-1β can occur and if cleavage might modulate ...

The significance of interleukin 8 in urine [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Disease in Childhood, 2001
To assess the implications of detection of interleukin 8 (IL-8) in urine.IL-8 was measured by immunoassay in all 305 urine samples from children aged 0-18.4 years received by our microbiology laboratory during four weeks, with a retrospective structured case note audit for all those in whom IL-8, white cells, or bacteria were detected.
