We have investigated the role of interleukin-1 in the regulatory mechanisms of a bone remodeling system. Osteoblastic cell line (MC3T3-E1) established from newborn mouse calvaria spontaneously produced interleukin-1-like cytokine. Although the interleukin-1-like activity was not observed in culture supernatants of the cells during their exponential phase of growth, a most remarkable interleukin-1-like activity was detected in the supernatants of cells cultured in serum-free alpha-MEM on day 5 after the cells had formed a confluent monolayer. Gel filtration analysis indicated that the interleukin-1-like cytokine exhibits some heterogeneity in size.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007375 Interleukin-1 A soluble factor produced by MONOCYTES; MACROPHAGES, and other cells which activates T-lymphocytes and potentiates their response to mitogens or antigens. Interleukin-1 is a general term refers to either of the two distinct proteins, INTERLEUKIN-1ALPHA and INTERLEUKIN-1BETA. The biological effects of IL-1 include the ability to replace macrophage requirements for T-cell activation.

D008810 Mice, Inbred C57BL One of the first INBRED MOUSE STRAINS to be sequenced. This strain is commonly used as genetic background for transgenic mouse models. Refractory to many tumors, this strain is also preferred model for studying role of genetic variations in development of diseases.

D003470 Culture Media Any liquid or solid preparation made specifically for the growth, storage, or transport of microorganisms or other types of cells. The variety of media that exist allow for the culturing of specific microorganisms and cell types, such as differential media, selective media, test media, and defined media. Solid media consist of liquid media that have been solidified with an agent such as AGAR or GELATIN. Media, Culture
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
