Role of IL-6 and IL-6 targeted therapy in systemic lupus erythematosus

Rheumatology, 2023
Abstract Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is one of the cytokines implicated in murine and human SLE. Only a few small studies have investigated IL-6 inhibition in human SLE. Currently, there are no studies registered in clinicaltrials.gov to assess the IL-6 targeted therapy in SLE, yet its role in the future remains to be defined.

The role of the interleukin (IL)-6/IL-6 receptor axis in cancer

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2018
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic cytokine that activates a classic signalling pathway upon binding to its membrane-bound receptor (IL-6R). Alternatively, IL-6 may ‘trans-signal’ in a manner that is facilitated by its binding to a soluble derivative of the IL-6 receptor (sIL-6R).

Anti-IL-6 receptor antibody increases blood IL-6 level via the blockade of IL-6 clearance, but not via the induction of IL-6 production

International Immunopharmacology, 2008
We explored the mechanism for the increase of blood IL-6 level after anti-IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) antibody injection. First, we examined whether anti-IL-6R antibody stimulates IL-6 production. Single injection of tocilizumab (anti-IL-6R antibody) in monkeys with collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) caused a marked increase in blood IL-6 and IL-6R levels, but

Analysis of interleukin 6 (IL-6)/IL-6 receptor system using monoclonal anti-IL-6 antibodies

Molecular Immunology, 1991
To investigate the IL-6/IL-6 receptor system, we obtained five murine monoclonal antibodies against human IL-6, which neutralize its biological activity. We classified them into two groups (Type I mAb and Type II mAb) according to the epitopes they recognized. These two types of antibodies showed no difference in the manner in which they neutralized IL-

Brain IL-6 and autism

Neuroscience, 2013
Autism is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impairments in social interaction, deficits in verbal and non-verbal communication, and repetitive behavior and restricted interests. Emerging evidence suggests that aberrant neuroimmune responses may contribute to phenotypic deficits and could be appropriate targets for pharmacologic ...

Targeting IL-6 or IL-6 Receptor in Rheumatoid Arthritis: What’s the Difference?

BioDrugs, 2018
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) signaling is a critical target in inflammatory pathways. Today, tocilizumab (TCZ) and sarilumab (SAR), two IL-6 receptor-inhibiting monoclonal antibodies, are widely used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), with a favorable efficacy/safety profile.

Identification of a Novel IL-6 Isoform Binding to the Endogenous IL-6 Receptor

American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology, 2002
Abstract Interleukin (IL)-6 is a multifunctional cytokine showing a wide variety of biologic functions on various tissues. Extracellular IL-6 signals through heterohexameric complex formation with IL-6 receptor- α (IL-6R α ) and IL-6 receptor- β (IL-6R β ).

Regulation of IL-6 and the hepatic IL-6 receptor in acute inflammation in vivo

Cytokine, 1993
The serum levels of interleukin 6 (IL-6) and the expression (mRNA) of the 80 kDa IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) were examined in three different models of acute inflammation. Rats were treated with either Freund's complete adjuvant (FA) via intraperitoneal injection, LPS via intravenous injection, or turpentine via subcutaneous injection.

IL-6 and Crohns Disease

Current Drug Target -Inflammation & Allergy, 2003
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic cytokine with central roles in immune regulation, inflammation, hematopoiesis, and oncogenesis. Its biological activities are shared by IL-6-family of cytokines such as leukemia inhibitory factor and oncostatin M.
