IL-18 signaling is regulated by caspase 6/8 and IL-18BP in turbot (Scophthalmus maximus).
Interleukin (IL)-18 is synthesized as a precursor that requires intracellular processing to become functionally active. In human, IL-18 is processed by caspase 1 (CASP1). In teleost, the maturation and signal transduction mechanisms of IL-18 are unknown. We identified two IL-18 variants, IL-18a and...

Interleukin (IL)-18 is synthesized as a precursor that requires intracellular processing to become functionally active. In human, IL-18 is processed by caspase 1 (CASP1). In teleost, the maturation and signal transduction mechanisms of IL-18 are unknown. We identified two IL-18 variants, IL-18a and IL-18b, in turbot. IL-18a, but not IL-18b, was processed by CASP6/8 cleavage. Mature IL-18a bound specifically to IL-18 receptor (IL-18R) α-expressing cells and induced IL-18Rα-IL-18Rβ association.
