## Abstract Human Cripto‐1 (CR‐1) is a cell membrane protein that is overexpressed in several different types of human carcinomas. In the present study we investigated the mechanisms that regulate the expression of CR‐1 gene in cancer cells. We cloned a 2,481 bp 5′‐flanking region of the human CR‐1

## Abstract Interleukin‐1 (IL‐1) is a key pro‐inflammatory cytokine that has diverse actions in the brain as a regulator of host defense responses and a mediator of inflammation. Two major agonists, IL‐1α and IL‐1β, bind to a single known functional type‐1 IL‐1 receptor (IL‐1RI) that associates wit
