1 14679086 Mutation scan of a type 1 diabetes candidate gene: the human interleukin-18 binding protein gene.
2 14679086 IL-18 is capable of inducing T lymphocyte synthesis of IFNgamma, thereby skewing the T helper response toward a T helper type 1 (Th1) profile.
3 14679086 IL-18 binding protein (IL18BP) neutralizes IL-18 and leads to a reduced Th1 response.
4 14679086 Polymorphisms in IL18BP may affect the activity of IL-18 and the magnitude of the Th1 response and may play a role in the pathogenesis of T1DM.
5 14679086 Mutation scan of a type 1 diabetes candidate gene: the human interleukin-18 binding protein gene.

13 15870024 IL-18 is a type 1 pro-inflammatory cytokine with structural similarities to IL-1 and in synergy with IL-12 stimulates IFN-gamma production from T lymphocytes and polarizes development and function of Th1 cells.
14 15870024 Because IL-1, IFN-gamma, and up-regulated Th1-mediated events are involved in the pathogenesis of both human and rodent type 1 diabetes mellitus, we have evaluated the effects of a specific inhibitor of IL-18 (the IL-18bp:FcIg) on the development of accelerated forms of autoimmune diabetes in NOD mice.
15 17075045 By neutralizing IL-18 activity with IL-18 binding protein (IL-18BP), we observed that islets produce bioactive IL-18.
16 17075045 In related studies, IL-18R-deficient splenocytes and macrophages produced 2- to 3-fold greater amounts of IL-18, TNFalpha, macrophage inflammatory protein 1, macrophage inflammatory protein 2, and IFNgamma upon stimulation with Con A, Toll-like receptor 2 agonist, or anti-CD3 antibodies.
17 17075045 Importantly, discrepancies between IL-18- and IL-18R-deficient cells suggest that IL-18Ralpha chain is used by an inflammation-suppressing signal.
18 21440322 Serum interleukin-18 binding protein increases with behavior different from IL-18 in patients with diabetic nephropathy.
