Leptin induces interleukin-1beta release from rat microglial cells through a caspase 1 independent mechanism.

abstract：:Sequences in the transcribed region of the c-fos gene have been suggested to control c-fos induction following exposure of cells to mitogens or stimuli that increase intracellular calcium concentrations. Using a mutational analysis we show that putative regulatory elements present in the first intron of the human c-fo...
