Popis: | Interleukin‐18 (IL‐18) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that evokes both innate and acquired immune responses. IL-18 is initially synthesized as an inactive precursor and the cleavage for processing into a mature, active molecule is mediated by pro-inflammatory caspases following the activation of inflammasomes. Two types of monoclonal antibodies were raised: anti-IL-1863−68 antibodies which recognize full-length1−193 and cleaved IL-18; and anti-IL-18 neoepitope antibodies which specifically recognize the new N-terminal 37YFGKLESK44 of IL-18 cleaved by pro-inflammatory caspase-1/4. These mAbs were suitable for Western blotting, capillary Western immunoassay (WES), immunofluorescence, immunoprecipitation, and function-blocking assays. WES analysis of these mAbs allowed visualization of the IL-18 bands and provided a molecular weight corresponding to the pro-inflammatory caspase-1/4 cleaved, active form IL-1837−193, and not to the inactive precursor IL-18, in the serum of patients with adult-onset Still's disease (6/14, 42%) and hemophagocytic activation syndrome (2/6, 33%). These monoclonal antibodies will be very useful in IL-18 and inflammasome biology and for diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for inflammatory diseases. |
