Biochem/physiol Actions
Interleukin-18 (IL18, also known as interferon-γ inducing factor) is a protein encoded by the IL18 gene in humans and is mapped to chromosome 11q22.2-q22.3. It is a well-known major proinflammatory cytokine with broad biological effects. Major function of IL-18 involves the enhancement of T cell and natural killer cell cytotoxicity. It is an inflammatory cytokine and plays an important role in autoimmune disease by inducing interferon-γ secretion. IL18 may contribute to SLE (systemic lupus erythematosus) activity.
