The regulated release of interleukin-1 from a cell or group of cells. Interleukin 1 is produced mainly by activated macrophages; it stimulates thymocyte proliferation by inducing interleukin 2 release and it is involved in the inflammatory response. The regulated release of cytokines from a cell or group of cells. Cytokines are any of a group of proteins that function to control the survival, growth and differentiation of tissues and cells, and which have autocrine and paracrine activity. The regulated release of interleukin-2 from a cell or group of cells. The controlled release of proteins from a cell or group of cells. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the regulated release of cytokines from a cell or group of cells. The directed movement of proteins into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The appearance of a cytokine due to biosynthesis or secretion following a cellular stimulus, resulting in an increase in its intracellular or extracellular levels. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the regulated release of cytokines from a cell or group of cells. Any biological process, occurring at the level of a multicellular organism, pertinent to its function. The regulated release of interferon-beta from a cell or group of cells. The regulated release of platelet activating factor by a cell or group of cells. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the regulated release of cytokines from a cell or group of cells. The regulated release of chemokines from a cell or group of cells. The regulated release of cytokines from a cell or group of cells during an immune response. The controlled release of a substance by a cell.
