MG Netea, LAB Joosten, E Lewis, DR Jensen, PJ … - Nature - 140.116.93.232 Here we report the presence of hyperphagia, obesity and insulin resistance in knockout mice
deficient in IL-18 or IL-18 receptor, and in mice transgenic for expression of IL-18 binding
protein. Obesity of Il18Ā/Ā mice resulted from accumulation of fat tissue based on ... Cited by 61 - Related articles - View as HTML - BL Direct - All 14 versions
