Enrichment analysis for gene ontology suggested that some biological processes related to the pathobiology of sarcoidosis, such as cellular response to interleukin (IL)-1 and IFN-γ, regulation of IL-6 production, IL-8 secretion, regulation of mononuclear cell migration, and response to lipopolysaccharide, were involved. The gene discussed is IL1B; the disease is sarcoidosis.
