Abstract

Macrophage-derived leukocytic pyrogen (LP) is thought to be similar if not identical to interleukin 1 (IL 1). In addition to macrophages, keratinocytes produce a factor that has similar biologic and biochemical characteristics to IL 1, called epidermal cell thymocyte-activating factor (ETAF). Becaus...
