1 Kinetics and mechanism of ATP-dependent IL-1 beta release from microglial cells. Adenosine Triphosphate interleukin 1 beta Mus musculus
2 Addition of extracellular ATP to LPS-primed microglia caused a burst of release of a large amount of processed IL-1 beta. Adenosine Triphosphate interleukin 1 beta Mus musculus
3 In LPS-treated cells, ATP slightly increased the synthesis of pro-IL-1 beta. Adenosine Triphosphate interleukin 1 beta Mus musculus
4 Optimal ATP concentration for IL-1 beta secretion was between 3 and 5 mM, but significant release could be observed at concentrations as low as 1 mM. Adenosine Triphosphate interleukin 1 beta Mus musculus
5 At all ATP concentrations IL-1 beta release could be inhibited by increasing the extracellular K+ concentration. Adenosine Triphosphate interleukin 1 beta Mus musculus
6 ATP-dependent IL-1 beta release was also inhibited by 90 and 60% by the caspase inhibitors YVAD and DEVD, respectively. Adenosine Triphosphate interleukin 1 beta Mus musculus
