== Function ==
[[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/TNF18_HUMAN TNF18_HUMAN]] Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF18/AITR/GITR. Regulates T-cell responses. Can function as costimulator and lower the threshold for T-cell activation and T-cell proliferation. Important for interactions between activated T-lymphocytes and endothelial cells. Mediates activation of NF-kappa-B.<ref>PMID:17449724</ref> <ref>PMID:18040044</ref>
