背景信息：
Interleukin-18-binding protein, also known as Tadekinig-alfa and IL18BP, contains 1 Ig-like C2-type domain. IL18BP is constitutively expressed and secreted in mononuclear cells. IL18BP functions as an IL18 inhibitor. IL18BP binds to IL18, prevents the binding of IL18 to its receptor, and thus inhibits IL18-induced IFN-gamma production. It has been shown that IL18BP may be a promising molecular approach to inhibit neointimal hyperplasia and arteriosclerosis progression following coronary and peripheral angioplasty.
