Interleukin (IL)-1 is a key mediator in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Naturally occurring IL-1 modulators include IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra), IL-1 soluble receptor Type I (IL-1sRI), IL-1sRII and IL-1 receptor accessory protein (AcP). Systemic and mucosal levels of IL-1 soluble receptors remain unknown in IBD. Plasma or colonic tissues were obtained from 185 consecutive unselected patients with Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) and from 52 control subjects. Plasma and colonic explant culture supernatants were assessed for IL-1alpha, IL-1beta, IL-1Ra, IL-1sRI and IL-1sRII. Plasma IL-1Ra levels were higher in UC (+93%) than in healthy subjects. IL-1alpha and IL-1beta were not detected. IL-1sRII levels were marginally lower in CD (-10%) and UC (-9%), whereas IL-1sRI levels were elevated in CD (+28%) only. Plasma IL-1sRI levels correlated positively (P
