What Wikipedia says

Interleukin-18 (IL-18), also known as interferon-gamma inducing factor, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the IL18 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a proinflammatory cytokine. Many cell types, both hematopoietic cells and non-hematopoietic cells, have the potential to produce IL-18.
