Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: IL-18 expression is up-regulated in atherosclerotic plaques, and higher levels are seen in obese and Type 2 Diabetic individuals. More recently, a possible role for IL-18 in glucose and energy homeostasis has been suggested. METHODS AND RESULTS: We investigated variation with...
