Type:
The term "IL-1" is often used as an umbrella term for the interleukin-1 family, which includes multiple cytokines. The two best-known members are IL-1α and IL-1β.
IL-1β is secreted from cells and plays a major systemic role in inflammation. It is a crucial mediator in the inflammatory response and is involved in the fever response, activation of endothelial cells, and leukocyte recruitment.
Its increased expression is commonly linked to:
  – Promotion of a pro-inflammatory microenvironment that supports tumor growth.
  – Enhanced angiogenesis, invasion, and metastasis.
  – Recruitment of myeloid cells that may further suppress antitumor immunity.

High expression of either tends to be associated with a more aggressive phenotype and worse prognosis in many cancer types.

- Trial, AD, NA
*BDNF↑, BDNF, MPOD, serum MXans, and AOC all increased significantly versus placebo in both treatment groups over the 6-month study period (p < .05 for all).
*IL1β↓, IL-1β decreased significantly versus placebo in both treatment groups (p = .0036 and p = .006, respectively).
*cognitive↑, For cognitive measures, scores for composite memory, verbal memory, sustained attention, psychomotor speed, and processing speed all improved significantly in treatment groups
*memory↑, For cognitive scores, change in BDNF was correlated to change in composite memory (r = 0.32; p = .014) and verbal memory


* indicates research on normal cells as opposed to diseased cells
