Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist
The IL1RN gene encodes a cytokine that belongs to the interleukin-1 family. By interacting with several other members of that family it modulates its effects. Mutations cause autosomal recesive deficiency which manifests with sterile osteomyelitis. Also some genetic variants are associated with gastric cancer and diabetic microangiopathy.
