IL-6 Receptor Independent Stimulation of Human gp130 by Viral IL-6 [PDF]
The Journal of Immunology, 2000 Abstract The genome of human herpes virus 8, which is associated with Kaposi’s sarcoma, encodes proteins with similarities to cytokines and chemokines including a homologue of IL-6. Although the function of these viral proteins is unclear, they might have the potential to modulate the immune system. For viral IL-6 (vIL-6), it has been
