Interleukin-12 (IL-12) and IL-18 synergistically induce the fungicidal activity of murine peritoneal exudate cells against Cryptococcus neoformans through production of gamma interferon by natural killer cells.
We examined the ability of interleukin-12 (IL-12) and IL-18 to induce the production of gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) and nitric oxide (NO) by murine peritoneal exudate cells (PEC) and to stimulate the growth-inhibitory activity of these cells against Cryptococcus neoformans. PEC produced IFN-gamma a...
