Interleukin (IL)-1-like protein 1 (IL-1L1) is a 155-amino acid protein that shares 27% identity with IL-1 g and 47% with IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra). A 2.7-kb IL-1L1 mRNA was cloned from human placenta and is detectable in the trophoblastic cell line JEG-3, in macrophages and in endotoxin-stim

## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The principal components of the interleukin‐1 (IL‐1) family are two secreted factors (IL‐1α and IL‐1β), two transmembrane receptors (IL‐1RI [biologically active] and IL‐1RII [inert receptor]), and a natural antagonist receptor of IL‐1 function (IL‐1Ra). Changes in the exp

The eye is considered an immunologically privileged organ and is separated from the rest of the body by blood-ocular barriers. Part of the blood-retina barrier consists of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). In addition to the physical barrier which the monolayer of RPE cells forms, these cells co

## Abstract The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether IL‐1 β (IL‐1β promoter and IL‐1β exon 5), IL‐1 receptor antagonist (IL‐1 __Ra__), and IL‐4 (IL‐4 promoter and IL‐4 intron 3) gene polymorphisms act as markers of susceptibility to Kawasaki disease (KD), or of the severity of the disease.
