Production of interleukin 1 by SK hepatoma tumor cells.

SK hepatoma cells and SK hepatoma conditioned media contain an 18,000-dalton factor which is pyrogenic, stimulates collagenase and prostaglandin production in skin and synovial fibroblasts, induces bone resorption, and stimulates the proliferation of murine thymocytes. These results are consistent with the finding that this tumor cell line produces interleukin 1 [Doyle, M. V., Brindley, L., Kawasaki, E., & Larrick, J. (1985) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 130, 768-773] since all these activities have been associated with this cytokine. Greater than 80% of the cellular activity has a molecular weight of 30,000, while in contrast, greater than 80% of the activity in the tumor-conditioned media has a molecular weight of 18,000. When active material from the cells is incubated with trypsin, this high molecular weight material is completely converted into an active 18,000 molecular weight species. The isoelectric point of all active material is always between pI 4.0 and 5.1, regardless of molecular weight. All of these results are consistent with the hypothesis that active, high molecular weight interleukin 1 alpha is first synthesized and stored by the tumor cell. This cytokine is then cleaved by a trypsin-like protease to an active, lower molecular weight species which can be secreted into the media.
