A proinflammatory cytokine primarily involved in polarized T-helper 1 cell and natural killer cell immune responses. Upon binding to IL18R1 and IL18RAP, forms a signaling ternary complex which activates NF-kappa-B, triggering synthesis of inflammatory mediators. Synergizes with IL12\/interleukin-12 to induce IFNG synthesis from T-helper 1 cells and natural killer cells.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuantitative mapping of ligand\/receptor signaling to downstream phospho- and transcriptional programs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse of recombinant standards to improve assay calibration and cross-study comparability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eA proinflammatory cytokine primarily involved in polarized T-helper 1 cell and natural killer cell immune responses.
