IL-18 and IL-18 binding protein are related to severity of myelodysplastic syndromes

open access: yes, 2022
AbstractBackground Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) was defined as a clonal hematopoietic disorder disease. Although current stratified therapy for MDS has greatly improved overall survival, there is still a subset of them who suffered from progression to AML with a poor prognosis. Immune factors play essential roles in the pathogenesis and evolution of

Altered expression of IL-18, IL-18 binding protein and IL-18 receptor in blood monocytes of patients with allergic rhinitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Abstract Background: Interleukin (IL)-18 is emerging as an attractive participant in allergic rhinitis (AR). However, correlation of IL-18 with IL-18 binding protein (BP) in plasma, and expression of IL-18, IL-18BP and IL-18 receptor (R) in AR blood monocytes remain obscure.Methods: We investigated IL-18, IL-18BP and IL-18R expression in ...

Molecular mechanisms of IL-18BP regulation in DLD-1 cells: pivotal direct action of the STAT1/GAS axis on the promoter level [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Interleukin (IL)-18, formerly known as interferon (IFN)-γ-inducing factor, is a crucial mediator of host defence and inflammation. Control of IL-18 bioactivity by its endogenous antagonist IL-18 binding protein (IL-18BP) is a major objective of ...

Expression, Purification and Structural Analysis of Human IL-18 Binding Protein: A Potent Therapeutic Molecule for Allergy

open access: yesAllergology International, 2008
Background: While interleukin-18 (IL-18) plays an important role in the innate and adaptive immune responses, it can also cause severe allergic inflammatory reactions. Thus it is a molecule currently being targeted for therapy.

Role of Interleukin-37 in Inflammatory and Autoimmune Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Immunology, 2018
Interleukin-1 family 7 (IL-1F7) is a novel member of IL-1F cytokines. IL-1F7 is more commonly known as IL-37. IL-37 join the α-subunit of the IL-18 receptor, or IL-18 binding protein (IL-18BP), and binding of these proteins can enhance the IL-18 ...

Mechanisms of Inhibition of Collagen-Induced Arthritis by Murine IL-18 Binding Protein 1 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2003
Abstract IL-18 is an important cytokine in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases through the induction of IFN-γ, TNF-α, and IL-1. We report herein that collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) in mice is inhibited by treatment with murine IL-18 binding protein (mIL-18BP).

IL-18 Binding Protein Protects Against Contact Hypersensitivity [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2003
Abstract Allergic contact dermatitis, the clinical manifestation of contact hypersensitivity, is one of the most common disorders of the skin. It is elicited upon multiple cutaneous re-exposure of sensitized individuals to the sensitizing agent.

Production of IL-18 Binding Protein by Radiosensitive and Radioresistant Cells in CpG-Induced Macrophage Activation Syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Immunology, 2020
Key Points Both radioresistant and radiosensitive cells produce Il-18bp during CpG-induced MAS. Il-18bp behaves as Ifn-γ signature gene during CpG-induced MAS. Elevated circulating levels of Il-18bp prevent systemic effects of Il-18 in MAS. IL-18 binding

cDNA Cloning of Biologically Active Chicken Interleukin-18 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
By searching a chicken EST database, we identified a cDNA clone that appeared to contain the entire open reading frame (ORF) of chicken interleukin-18 (ChIL-18).
