Uromodulin. An immunosuppressive 85-kilodalton glycoprotein isolated from human pregnancy urine is a high affinity ligand for recombinant interleukin 1 alpha.

A V Muchmore, J M Decker.   

Abstract

Uromodulin is an 85-kDa immunosuppressive glycoprotein originally isolated from human pregnancy urine. It exhibits immunosuppressive activity in vitro at concentrations between 10(-9) and 10(-11) M. Recent data demonstrate that uromodulin is able to specifically inhibit in vitro assays dependent upon interleukin 1 (IL-1). We now present evidence that uromodulin is a high affinity ligand for recombinant murine IL-1 alpha. Since uromodulin has been purified to homogeneity, this should allow extensive further characterization of the mechanism of action of both uromodulin and IL-1.
