Abstract:
Interleukin-18 (IL-18) is a proinflammatory pleiotropic cytokine playing a major role in the inflammatory cascade. It was written up for the first time in 1995 as a factor inducing interferon gamma in Kupffer cells, macrophages as well as T and B cells. Authors are presenting actual publications concerning usefulness in interleukin 18 determination in clinical diagnostics.
