Inflammatory Markers Associated With Subclinical Coronary Artery Disease: The Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study. [PDF]
BackgroundDespite evidence for higher risk of coronary artery disease among HIV+ individuals, the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. We investigated associations of inflammatory markers with subclinical coronary artery disease in 923 ...

Regulation of adipose tissue inflammation by interleukin 6
Significance Chronic low-grade inflammation is a key driver of metabolic syndrome. This inflammatory response is mediated by immune-cell infiltration and the expression of inflammatory cytokines.

Interleukin-6 Promoter Haplotypes and Interleukin-6 Cytokine Responses [PDF]
Genetic variations contribute to differences in the inflammatory response and are markers for disease risk and outcomes. We studied three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (-597 G-->A, -572 G-->C, and -174 G-->C) in the IL-6 promoter to determine associations with ex vivo LPS-stimulated IL-6 production by leukocytes.

Consensus statement on blocking interleukin-6 receptor and interleukin-6 in inflammatory conditions: an update [PDF]
Targeting interleukin (IL)-6 has become a major therapeutic strategy in the treatment of immune-mediated inflammatory disease. Interference with the IL-6 pathway can be directed at the specific receptor using anti-IL-6Rα antibodies or by directly inhibiting the IL-6 cytokine.

Fetal and early neonatal interleukin-6 response [PDF]
In 1998, a systemic fetal cytokine response, defined as a plasma interleukin-6 (IL-6) value above 11 pg/mL, was reported to be a major independent risk factor for the subsequent development of neonatal morbid events even after adjustments for gestational

Increased levels of interleukin-6 exacerbate the dystrophic phenotype in mdx mice [PDF]
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is characterized by progressive lethal muscle degeneration and chronic inflammatory response. The mdx mouse strain has served as the animal model for human DMD. However, while DMD patients undergo extensive necrosis, the

Confronting the controversy: interleukin-6 and the COVID-19 cytokine storm syndrome
The concept of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related cytokine storm syndrome (COVID-CSS) emerged early in the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic to explain why some patients exposed to this virus become critically

ZNF580 – a brake on Interleukin-6 [PDF]
Zinc finger protein 580 (ZNF580) was reported to modulate angiogenesis, endothelial homeostasis and blood pressure control. ZNF580 regulated genes include VEGF-A and IL-8. However, it is unknown if ZNF580 could play a role during inflammation. The aim of this study was to find out if ZNF580 affects the expression of IL-6, if it occurs in monocytic ...
