Journal Article
Murine T helper cell-2 lymphocytes express type I and type II IL-1 receptors, but only the type I receptor mediates costimulatory activity.
David J. McKean,R P Podzorski,Michael P. Bell,Allan E. Nilson,Catherine J. Huntoon,Jennifer L. Slack,S K Dower,John E. Sims +7 more
TL;DR: Together, these studies indicate that, although Th2 clones express inducible levels of both type I and type II IL-1R isoforms, theIL-1-induced intracellular signals involved in augmenting an anti-CD3-stimulated proliferative response are mediated solely through the type I IL- 1R.

Cytokine that binds ST2
TL;DR: In this article, the ST2 ligand polypeptide binds to a receptor that is expressed on cell types that include certain Hodgkin's Disease-derived tumor cells, along with DNA sequences, expression vectors and transformed host cells useful in producing ST 2 ligandpolypeptides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monoclonal antibody 1994-01 (also known as ALVA 42) reported to recognize type II IL-1 receptor is specific for HLA-DR alpha and beta chains.
TL;DR: By direct expression cloning, this work has identified two gene products, both of which are required for binding of this antibody, the alpha and beta subunits of the MHC class II antigen HLA-DR and it can be shown that it does not bind to the type II IL-1 receptor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular heterogeneity of interleukin-1 receptors.
Steven K. Dower,John E. Sims,Thomas H. Stanton,Jennifer L. Slack,Catherine J. McMahan,Mary A. Valentine,Karol Bomsztyk +6 more
TL;DR: Observations show that major structural differences exist between the IL-1 receptors on B and T lymphocytes, while the receptors on T-cells and fibroblasts are identical polypeptides.
Journal Article
Helper T cell-independent proliferation of CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes transduced with an IL-1 receptor retrovirus.

TL;DR: Transduced conventional helper-dependent CTL clones with a retroviral vector encoding the murine type I IL-1R proliferated in response toIL-1 in the presence of Ag, without a requirement for helper T cells, IL-2, or other cytokine support.
