Functional discrimination between interleukin 6 and interleukin 1
Abstract
In this study we have investigated the specificity of bioassays in which interleukin (IL)1 and/or IL6 are active. The thymocyte assay cannot be used to discriminate between IL1 and IL6; both monokines are active in this assay. Moreover the detection limit for both IL1 and IL6 is around 100 pg/ml. IL6 activity can be measured with a murine hybridoma cell line (B9). The detection limit for human as well as murine IL6 is about 0.5 pg/ml. The assay is specific for IL 6 and is not influenced by a variety of other cytokines except for murine IL4 which shows some activity in this assay. IL1 can be measured specifically with D10 cells. The detection limit for IL1α and IL1β is around 1 pg/ml whereas IL6 is not active in this assay at all. Upon stimulation by IL1 and/or IL2 D10 cells produce IL6. However, this IL6 does not seem to be involved in the proliferation of these cells.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
