Il18 encodes interleukin 18, the mouse ortholog of human IL18 and an interleukin 1 family member synthesized as an inactive precursor constitutively stockpiled in epithelium, keratinocytes, and macrophages, then cleaved by caspase-1 downstream of NLRP3 or NLRC4 inflammasomes, or by caspase-8, neutrophil proteases, and granzyme B, before release through gasdermin D pores. Mature cytokine engages IL-18R1 with the accessory chain IL18RAP to recruit MyD88 and IRAK4, driving NF-kB and, together with interleukin 12, potent interferon gamma output from Th1, NK, and ILC1 cells, while the secreted decoy interleukin 18 binding protein sets the free ligand concentration and rises in macrophage activation syndrome. Allele design should follow that regulation: a conditional null tests requirement, an uncleavable precursor knockin isolates processing, and humanization supports both neutralizing antibody and decoy-resistant agonist programs. Because Il18 and Il1b share upstream inflammasome machinery, attribute phenotypes with ligand-specific alleles rather than caspase-1 deletion.
ingenious targeting laboratory offers 4 distinct Il18 (IL18) catalog mouse models, featuring conditional knockout, standard knockout, and knockin. Researchers can order pre-developed catalog lines or request a custom mouse model, including humanized, knockin, and transgenic variations with verified germline transmission.

4 Il18 lines with QC documentation and technical support. Il18 floxed mice use loxP flanked alleles for Cre dependent tissue specific knockout.
Il18-Flox
CKOCKO
These strains carry loxP sites flanking exon 3-5 of Il18 gene. When crossed with a Cre recombinase-expressing strain, this strain is useful in eliminating tissue-specific conditional expression of Il18 gene.
Il18-3×FLAG-NLS-mNeongreen-NLS-6×HIS
KIFluorescent Model, Other Toolbox (non-Cre, non-Fluorescent)
The 3×FLAG-NLS-mNeongreen-NLS-6×HIS expression cassette was substituted for the sequence between the start and stop codons of the Il18 gene.
Il18-Luc-2A-EGFP
KIFluorescent Model
A Luciferase-2A-EGFP-pA cassette was inserted after ATG the start codon. The intrisic promoter drives the expression of reporter genes, which reflects the activity of Il18.
Il18-KO
KOKO
Exon 3-5 of Il18 gene was deleted to generate Il18 knockout mice.

Order catalog modelA Il18 knockout mouse has the Il18 gene permanently inactivated, enabling loss of function studies. A Il18 conditional knockout (floxed) mouse carries loxP sites flanking a critical exon of Il18, allowing Cre recombinase dependent deletion in specific tissues or at specific timepoints. Il18 knockin models carry a precisely inserted sequence at the Il18 locus, useful for reporter, tag, or humanization studies.
