## Abstract Interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) has been shown to induce the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule‐1 (ICAM‐1) on airway epithelial cells and contributes to inflammatory responses. However, the mechanisms regulating ICAM‐1 expression by IL‐1β in human A549 cells was not completely underst
