ABSTRACT:
IL-1ra beta polypeptides and polynucleotides and methods for producing such polypeptides by recombinant techniques are disclosed. Also disclosed are methods for utilizing IL-1ra beta polypeptides and polynucleotides in the design of protocols for the treatment of chronic and acute inflammation, septicemia, arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, graft vs. host disease, autoimmunity, stroke, cardiac ischemia, acute respiratory disease syndrome (ARDS), psoriasis, restenosis, traumatic brain injury, AIDS, cachexia., among others, and diagnostic assays for such conditions.
