摘要:
The present invention describes IL-1β binding proteins, including chimeric, CDR-grafted, and humanized antibodies that bind IL-1β. Binding proteins of the invention have high affinity for IL-1β and neutralize IL-1β activity. A binding protein of the invention can be a full-length antibody or an IL-1β-binding portion thereof. Methods of making and methods of using the binding proteins of the invention are also described. The IL-1β binding proteins of the invention are useful for detecting IL-1β and for inhibiting IL-1β activity, including in a human subject suffering from a disease or disorder in which IL-1β activity is detrimental.
