Deskripsi

Interleukin-18 (IL18) has a pivotal role in interferon signalling and T cell development, but increasingly recognized as an adipokine that regulates energy metabolism in fat tissue. Authors here dissect the function of IL18 signalling in the adipose compartment by targeted genomic deletion of its two receptors individually and in combination in brown and white adipose tissues.
