Humanized Antibodies Targeting Ectodomains of IL-6R and GP130 Suppress IL-6/STAT3 Signalling and Tumour Growth in Breast Cancer Models. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) signalling is a key driver of breast cancer progression, activating pro‐survival, pro‐inflammatory and metastatic programs through its receptors, IL‐6R and GP130. Elevated IL‐6 levels correlate with poor prognosis in breast cancer patients and persistent IL‐6/STAT3 activation promotes tumour proliferation, metastasis ...

Structure of the IL-27 quaternary receptor signaling complex
Interleukin 27 (IL-27) is a heterodimeric cytokine that functions to constrain T cell-mediated inflammation and plays an important role in immune homeostasis.

The role of gp130 receptor cytokines in the regulation of metabolic homeostasis [PDF]
ABSTRACT It is well known that obesity is responsible, at least in part, for the increased incidence of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and certain types of cancer. Despite public education programs emphasizing lifestyle modifications to arrest this global pandemic, it is now estimated that 10–15% of the ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

The IL-6 cytokine family signals through the common signal transduction molecule gp130 combined with a cytokine-specific receptor. Gp130 signaling on CD4 T cells is vital in controlling chronic infection of mice with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus ...

A New Type of Cytokine Receptor Antagonist Directly Targeting gp130 [PDF]
The interleukin-6-type family of cytokines bind to receptor complexes that share gp130 as a common signal-transducing subunit. So far, receptor antagonists for interleukin-6-type cytokines have been constructed that still bind to the specific ligand binding subunit of the receptor complex, but have lost the ability to stimulate gp130.

Dimerization of the cytokine receptors gp130 and LIFR analysed in single cells [PDF]
The cytokine receptor gp130 is the shared signalling subunit of the IL-6-type cytokines. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) signals through gp130 homodimers whereas leukaemia inhibitory factor (LIF) exerts its action through a heterodimer of gp130 and the LIF receptor (LIFR). Related haematopoietic receptors such as the erythropoietin receptor have been described as

Characterization of the Signaling Capacities of the Novel gp130-like Cytokine Receptor [PDF]
The gp130-like receptor (GPL) is a recently cloned member of the family of type I cytokine receptors. The name reflects its close relationship to gp130, the common receptor subunit of the interleukin (IL)-6-type cytokines. Indeed, the recently proposed ligand for GPL, IL-31, is closely related to the IL-6-type cytokines oncostatin M, leukemia ...

Role of Interleukin-6 in Vascular Health and Disease
IL-6 is usually described as a pleiotropic cytokine produced in response to tissue injury or infection. As a pro-inflammatory cytokine, IL-6 activates innate and adaptative immune responses. IL-6 is released in the innate immune response by leukocytes as

Absence of GP130 cytokine receptor signaling causes extended Stüve-Wiedemann syndrome [PDF]
The gene IL6ST encodes GP130, the common signal transducer of the IL-6 cytokine family consisting of 10 cytokines. Previous studies have identified cytokine-selective IL6ST defects that preserve LIF signaling. We describe three unrelated families with at least five affected individuals who presented with lethal Stüve-Wiedemann–like syndrome ...
