1 ADP was less active than ATP at initiating the post-translational maturation and release of IL-1 beta and AMP, GTP, and UTP were totally inactive, ATP, nigericin, A204, and lasalocid promoted a rapid and complete loss of the potassium analog 86Rb+ from cells that were preloaded with this cation; valinomycin-treated cells released only a portion of the radiolabeled cation. Potassium interleukin 1 beta Mus musculus
2 Agents that promoted the maturation and release of IL-1 beta from LPS-stimulated macrophages, therefore, shared an ability to mobilize intracellular potassium. Potassium interleukin 1 beta Mus musculus
