This study characterized body temperature (Tb), locomotor activity (Act), and feeding behavior under normal conditions and following injection with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or inoculation with live influenza virus of transgenic C57/black mice deficient in interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta). Tb and Act in freely moving mice were measured by biotelemetry. Mice deficient in IL-1 beta had normal circadian rhythm of Tb but were less active than their control counterparts. Mice injected with LPS (2.5 mg/kg i.p.) responded with a prompt decrease of Tb, which lasted approximately 10 h, followed by a fever in which Tb reached a peak at approximately 24 h postinjection. There was no difference between groups in the early drop of Tb after the LPS; however, the 24-h peak of Tb was lower in IL-1 beta-deficient mice. The anorexic effects of LPS and influenza infection were similar in both groups of mice. In mice given influenza virus (17.5 plaque-forming units, median lethal dose), Tb and Act gradually decreased. The fall of Tb was smaller in the transgenic mice. The mice deficient in IL-1 beta displayed a higher mortality rate due to influenza infection than the control mice. We conclude that deficiency in IL-1 beta results in lower fever following the LPS injection and in impairment of the defense response to infection with influenza.
