Background

Human interleukin 1 family member #9 [IL-1F9; also named IL-1 epsilon  (epsilon) and IL-1H1] is a member of the IL-1 family, which includes IL-1 beta , IL-1 alpha , IL-1ra, IL-18 and IL-1F5 through F10 (1‑4). All family members show a 12 beta -strand, beta -trefoil configuration, and are believed to have arisen from a common ancestral gene that has undergone multiple duplications (4). IL-1F9 is synthesized as a 19 kDa, 169 amino acid (aa) protein that contains no signal sequence, no prosegment and no potential N-linked glycosylation site (1, 2, 5). The molecule is secreted when transfected into 293-T cells (5). Human to mouse, IL-1F9 has 53% aa sequence identity. Within the family, IL-1F9 shares 30%, 23%, 33%, 57%, 35%, 45%, and 32% aa sequence identity with IL-1 ra, IL-1 beta , IL-1F5, F6, F7, F8, and F10, respectively. Cells reported to express IL-1F9 include Langerhans cells, keratinocytes/stratified squamous epithelium, plus Chief cells and Parietal cells of the stomach (4, 5). The receptor for IL‑1F9 is reported to be a combination of IL-1 Rrp2 and IL-1 RAcP (6). Recombinant IL-1F9, along with IL-1F8 and IL-1F6, has been shown to activate the pathway involving NF-kappa B and MAPK in an IL-1 Rrp2 dependent manner.
