Interleukin-6: A Masterplayer in the Cytokine Network

Oncology, 2020
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a member of the pro-inflammatory cytokine family, induces the expression of a variety of proteins responsible for acute inflammation, and plays an important role in the proliferation and differentiation of cells in humans.

Targeting Interleukin-6 Signaling in Clinic.

Immunity, 2019
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic cytokine with roles in immunity, tissue regeneration, and metabolism. Rapid production of IL-6 contributes to host defense during infection and tissue injury, but excessive synthesis of IL-6 and dysregulation of IL-6

Exercise and interleukin-6

Current Opinion in Hematology, 2001
Strenuous exercise induces increased levels in a number of pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokines, natural occurring cytokine inhibitors, and chemokines. Thus, increased plasma levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, interleukin (IL)-1 beta, IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra), TNF-receptors (TNF-R), IL-10, IL-8, and macrophage inflammatory protein ...

Interleukin-6-Producing Pheochromocytoma

Acta Haematologica, 1991
A 42-year-old female with high fever and headache was admitted. Physical examination revealed hypertension, thrombocytosis with megakaryocytosis, hyperfibrinogenemia, and high level of serum noradrenaline. After operation of extramedullary pheochromocytoma, all symptoms disappeared and findings became normal.

Measurement of Interleukin 6

Current Protocols in Immunology, 1996
AbstractInterleukin 6 (IL‐6) is a pluripotent cytokine with multiple effects on many different cell types. It is produced by a variety of cells in response to immunological and other stimuli. This unit describes a simple and sensitive assay for human, rat, rabbit, pig, and mouse IL‐6, based on IL‐6‐dependent proliferation of a murine B cell hybridoma ...

Role of Interleukin-6 in Development of Insulin Resistance and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Critical Reviews in Eukaryotic Gene Expression, 2017
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a proinflammatory cytokine that decisively induces the development of insulin resistance and pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) through the generation of inflammation by controlling differentiation, migration ...

Interleukin-6 and melanoma

Melanoma Research, 2012
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic immunomodulatory cytokine produced by various types of cells, including melanoma cells. IL-6 plays a major role in the pathogenesis and development of malignancies. It promotes tumour growth by inhibition of apoptosis and induces tumour angiogenesis. IL-6 is deregulated in many types of cancers, and increased serum

Interleukin-6 Inhibitor: Tocilizumab

2015
Inhibitors of interleukin-6 (IL-6) are proteins which decrease the actions of the inflammatory cytokine, IL-6. Clinically, tocilizumab is the major inhibitor of IL-6. Several other proteins with IL-6 inhibitory actions (e.g., sirukumab) are being tested in clinical trials.

Cardiovascular Biology of Interleukin-6

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2009
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a multifunctional pro-inflammatory cytokine that is tightly regulated and expressed at low levels in healthy individuals. Increased IL-6 expression has been associated with a variety of diseases, including inflammatory conditions such as atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease (obesity, myocardial infarction and type II ...

Interleukin-6 in atherosclerosis: atherogenic or atheroprotective?

Clinical Lipidology, 2017
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a unique pleiotropic cytokine exhibiting both pro- and anti-inflammatory properties depending on the target cell type. Plasma IL-6 levels are associated with cardiovascular risk.
