Abstract:
:Interleukin-18 (IL-18) plays a central role in the immune response by acting on Th1 cell differentiation, cell-mediated cytotoxicity and inflammation. The role of IL-18 in cancers and inflammatory diseases is discussed in the light of our investigations on IL-18 synthesis in normal colonic mucosa, colonic cancer and Crohn's disease (CD).
