Abstract
Interferon (IFN)-γ-inducing interleukin (IL)-18 is a crucial inflammatory cytokine systemically provided by monocytes. It is counteracted by IL-18 binding protein (IL-18BP), a decoy receptor that displays IFNγ-inducibility thus curbing inflammation by negative feedback. Since IL18BP inducibility is pronounced in human epithelial cells but diminished in monocytes, differential IL18BP regulation was investigated herein in both types of cells....
