Protein Information
Name Il18 {ECO:0000312|MGI:MGI:107936}
Synonyms Igif
Function Pro-inflammatory cytokine primarily involved in epithelial barrier repair, polarized T-helper 1 (Th1) cell and natural killer (NK) cell immune responses (PubMed:26638072, PubMed:26638073). Upon binding to IL18R1 and IL18RAP, forms a signaling ternary complex which activates NF-kappa-B, triggering synthesis of inflammatory mediators (By similarity). Synergizes with IL12/interleukin-12 to induce IFNG synthesis from T-helper 1 (Th1) cells and natural killer (NK) cells (By similarity). Involved in transduction of inflammation downstream of pyroptosis: its mature form is specifically released in the extracellular milieu by passing through the gasdermin-D (GSDMD) pore (PubMed:30392956).
Cellular Location Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q14116}. Secreted. Note=The precursor is cytosolic (By similarity). In response to inflammasome-activating signals, cleaved and secreted (By similarity). Mature form is secreted and released in the extracellular milieu by passing through the gasdermin-D (GSDMD) pore (PubMed:30392956). In contrast, the precursor form is not released, due to the presence of an acidic region that is proteolytically removed by CASP1 during maturation (By similarity). The secretion is dependent on protein unfolding and facilitated by the cargo receptor TMED10 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q14116, ECO:0000269|PubMed:30392956}

Background

Interleukin-18 (IL-18), an 18 kDa cytokine, is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 157 amino acids. IL-18 was previously known as interferon-g inducing factor (IGIF). This pleiotropic cytokine is produced by monocyte/macrophage cells. Like IL-12, IL-18 plays an important role in cell-mediated immune responses.
