MC García, I Wernstedt, A Berndtsson, M Enge, M Bell, … - Diabetes, 2006 - Am Diabetes Assoc Interleukin-1 (IL-1) is a major mediator of inflammation that exerts its biological activities through
the IL-1 type I receptor (IL-1RI). The body weights of IL-1RI −/− mice of both sexes started to deviate
from those of wild-type mice at 5–6 months of age and were 20% higher at 9 months of ... Cited by 37 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 7 versions
D Chida, T Osaka, O Hashimoto, Y Iwakura - Diabetes, 2006 - Am Diabetes Assoc Proinflammatory cytokines including interleukin (IL)-1 and IL-6 exert pleiotropic effects on the
neuro-immuno-endocrine system. Previously, we showed that IL-1 receptor antagonist–deficient
(IL-1Ra −/− ) mice show a lean phenotype due to an abnormal lipid metabolism. On the ... Cited by 25 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 5 versions

of this cytokine under physiological conditions is not known completely. In this paper, we analyzed
the role of IL-1 in maintaining body weight because IL-1 receptor antagonist–deficient (IL- ... Cited by 81 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 6 versions

homeostasis. Because the soluble IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) is markedly increased in
the serum of obese patients and is overexpressed in white adipose tissue in obesity, we ... Cited by 30 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 5 versions
