IL-18 gene polymorphisms affect IL-18 production capability by monocytes

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2006
We previously demonstrated a significant association between IL-18 gene polymorphism 105A/C and asthma. In this study, we investigated the relationship of IL-18 gene polymorphism to IL-18 production capability by monocytes. The frequency of gene polymorphisms including IL-18-105A/C and IL-18--137G/C was determined by PCR analyses.

Immunotherapeutic Applications of IL-18

Immunotherapy, 2012
To become active and extracellularly released, IL-18 needs post-translational processing by the cytoplasmic enzyme caspase-1, which has high sequence homology with apoptotic cell death-associated enzymes in Caenorhabditis elegans. Furthermore, the receptor for IL-18 shares the signal transduction pathway with the Toll-like receptor, which highly ...

IL-18 and skin inflammation

Autoimmunity Reviews, 2009
IL-18 belongs to the IL-1 family of cytokines and has recently regained interest in the context of inflammasome activation. The inflammasome dependent caspase 1 cleaves pro-IL-18 into the active form - similar to what is known for IL-1ss. Still, the action and importance of IL-18 are not completely understood.

Human Anti–Human IL-18 Antibody Recognizing the IL-18–Binding Site 3 with IL-18 Signaling Blocking Activity

The Journal of Biochemistry, 2005
IL-18 is an important regulator in both innate and acquired immune responses. The aberrant expression of IL-18 is associated with severe inflammatory conditions, such as autoimmune diseases and allergies. Thus, human antibodies with inhibitory activity on IL-18 signaling may be useful for therapeutic applications. We report here the first establishment
