Abstract

Interleukin 1 (IL-1) is a cytokine that is involved in the mechanism of host resistance and immune function (for review, see ref. 1). Evidence indicates that IL-1 functions as a proinflammatory cytokine with significant and well-documented effects on innate resistance and the inflammatory response (2). The biological effects of IL-1 also influence the development of the specific immune response. IL-1 has been long studied as a costimulator of both B-cells and T-cells and the adjuvant effect of IL-1 is well documented (3–5). Thus, it is believed that IL-1 plays a central role in both innate resistance mechanisms and specific immune responses.
