This proinflammatory cytokine is synthesized as an inactive precursor which requires cleavage by Caspase-1 to become an active, mature molecule, which is secreted by monocytes and macrophages (3,4,6). It induces IFNγ production in T-helper-1 (Th1) cells and natural killer (NK) cells, and can regulate innate immunity via both Th1 and Th2 responses (4,5). Elevated IL-18 levels are associated with autoimmune disease, but may be balanced by binding to IL-18 binding protein (IL-18BP), which along with IL-18 neutralizing antibodies, are being examined in clinical trials (6,7).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nIboctadekin; IFN-gamma-inducing factor; IGIF; IL 18; IL-1 gamma; IL-18; IL-1g; IL18; IL1F4; Interferon gamma-inducing factor; interleukin 18; interleukin 18 (interferon-gamma-inducing factor); Interleukin-1 gamma; Interleukin-18; MGC12320\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 22\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799851815081,"sku":"67775T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-67775t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
