Background

IL-18, also known as interferon-gamma-inducing factor (IGIF) and IL-18, is an 18 kDa protein belonging to the IL-1 superfamily. It is synthesized as a 24 kDa pro-IL-18 and is processed by caspase 1 to form the active protein. IL-18 is produced by multiple cell types including monocyte/macrophages, dendritic cells, osteoblasts and keratinocytes. Mature IL-18 synergizes with IL-12 to induce differentiation of naïve Th cells into Th1 cells. It also plays multiple roles in other immune cell types including macrophages, NK cells and B cells. Canine and human mature IL-18 share 73% amino acid sequence identity.
