DISEASE | Microvascular complications of diabetes 4 (MVCD4) [MIM:612628]: Pathological conditions that develop in numerous tissues and organs as a consequence of diabetes mellitus. They include diabetic retinopathy, diabetic nephropathy leading to end-stage renal disease, and diabetic neuropathy. Diabetic retinopathy remains the major cause of new-onset blindness among diabetic adults. It is characterized by vascular permeability and increased tissue ischemia and angiogenesis. Note=Disease susceptibility is associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Interleukin 1 receptor antagonist deficiency (DIRA) [MIM:612852]: A rare autoinflammatory disease of skin and bone resulting in sterile multifocal osteomyelitis, periostitis, and pustulosis from birth. The term autoinflammatory disease describes a group of disorders characterized by attacks of seemingly unprovoked inflammation without significant levels of autoantibodies and autoreactive T-cells. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. |

Background Descriptions | IL-1RA is a member of the interleukin 1 cytokine family. IL1Ra is secreted by various types of cells including immune cells, epithelial cells, and adipocytes, and is a natural inhibitor of the pro-inflammatory effect of IL1β. This protein inhibits the activities of interleukin 1, alpha (IL1A) and interleukin 1, beta (IL1B), and modulates a variety of interleukin 1 related immune and inflammatory responses. This gene and five other closely related cytokine genes form a gene cluster spanning approximately 400 kb on chromosome 2. Four alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. |
Gene ID | 16181 |

---|---|
Synonyms | Il-1ra |
Function | Anti-inflammatory antagonist of interleukin-1 family of proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1beta/IL1B and interleukin-1alpha/IL1A. Protects from immune dysregulation and uncontrolled systemic inflammation triggered by IL1 for a range of innate stimulatory agents such as pathogens. |
