Title: | Interleukin-1 Blockade: An Update on Emerging Indications | Authors: | Mistry, Anoop Savic, Sinisa VAN DER HILST, Jeroen |
Issue Date: | 2017 | Publisher: | ADIS INT LTD | Source: | BIODRUGS, 31(3), p. 207-221 | Abstract: | Interleukin (IL)-1 is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that induces local and systemic inflammation aimed to eliminate microorganisms and tissue damage. However, an increasing number of clinical conditions have been identified in which IL-1 production is considered inappropriate and IL-1 is part of the disease etiology. In autoinflammatory diseases, gout, Schnitzler's syndrome, and adult-onset Still's disease, high levels of inappropriate IL-1 production have been shown to be a key process in the etiology of the disease. In these conditions, blocking IL-1 has proven very effective in clinical studies. In other diseases, IL-1 has shown to be present in disease process but is not the central driving force of inflammation. In these conditions, including type 1 and 2 diabetes mellitus, acute coronary syndrome, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and several neoplastic diseases, the benefits of IL-1 blockade are minimal or absent. | Notes: | [Mistry, Anoop] St James Univ Hosp, Dept Clin Immunol & Allergy, Wellcome Trust Brenner Bldg,Beckett St, Leeds, W Yorkshire, England.
