Abstract: To explore the expression of IL-1β during the infection of host cells by Brucella, the prokaryotic expression of IL-1β in mouse was constructed, polyclonal antibodies was obtained by immunization, and its activity was detected by ELISA and Western blot. The 1∶100 (bacterial∶cell) multiplicity of infection was then used to model the infection of RAW264.7 macrophages by Brucella suis S2. Expression of IL-1β mRNA and MyD88 mRNA was detected by RT-PCR; IL-1β protein was analyzed by Western blot. The molecular weight of the recombinant protein was about 31 ku. And the titer of the polyclonal antibody prepared by ELISA was 1∶25 600, with good immunoreactivity and specificity. The expression of IL-1β mRNA and IL-1β protein increased after infection. And the number of intracellular bacteria decreased. The expression of IL-1β in macrophages infected with Brucella suis S2 varied over time and affected the intracellular bacteria。
