Inter-α-Inhibitor Impairs TSG-6-Induced Hyaluronan Cross-Linking [PDF]
Under inflammatory conditions and in the matrix of the cumulus-oocyte complex (COC), the polysaccharide hyaluronan (HA) becomes decorated covalently with heavy chains (HCs) of the serum glycoprotein inter-α-inhibitor (IαI).

The role of Interleukin 6 inhibitors in therapy of severe COVID-19
Cytokine storm syndrome (CSS) is a severe complication of inflammatory immune diseases or treatment of malignancies; it may also appear during the progression of COVID-19. CSS is caused by dysregulation of the synthesis of cytokines, including pro-inflammatory, regulatory, and anti-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, leading to pathologic activation

A form of circulating interleukin-6 receptor component soluble gp130 as a potential interleukin-6 inhibitor in inflammatory bowel disease [PDF]
SummaryThe presence and the role of soluble gp130, the soluble form of a component of the interleukin (IL)-6 receptor complex, were investigated in inflammatory bowel disease. The serum concentrations of soluble gp130 were increased in ulcerative colitis (active disease, median, 93·5 ng/ml; interquartile range, 26–125 ng/ml; inactive disease, 81 ng/ml,

Tocilizumab (monoclonal anti-IL-6R antibody) reverses anlotinib resistance in osteosarcoma
PurposeAnlotinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) has been in clinical application to inhibit malignant cell growth and lung metastasis in osteosarcoma (OS). However, a variety of drug resistance phenomena have been observed in the treatment. We aim to

AB0470 EXPERIENCE WITH THE USE OF INTERLEUKIN 6 INHIBITOR IN SEVERE ANKYLOSING SPONDYLITIS [PDF]
Background: Inhibitors of interleukin 6 (IL6) have been found to be ineffective in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) based on the results of randomized clinical trials (RCTs) on tocilizumab (TCZ) and sarilimumab [1, 2]. However, there is evidence that IL6 is actively involved in the pathogenesis of the disease [3].

The benefits and prospects of interleukin-6 inhibitor on systemic sclerosis [PDF]
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a connective tissue disease, the pathogenesis of which is thought to involve interleukin-6 (IL-6), an inflammatory cytokine. This is based on findings of its concentration in patient serum, the results of an IL-6 suppression experiment in an animal model, and the results of a pilot study using IL-6 receptor antibody. However,

Suppression of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3-dependent B lymphocyte terminal differentiation by BCL-6 [PDF]
Lymphocytes usually differentiate into effector cells within days after antigen exposure, except in germinal centers where terminal differentiation is delayed while somatic hypermutation creates high-affinity antibody mutants. Here we investigate whether

HSP70 inhibitors upregulate prostaglandin E1-induced synthesis of interleukin-6 in osteoblasts
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a pro-inflammatory and bone-resorptive cytokine that also regulates bone formation. We previously showed that prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) induces the synthesis of IL-6 by activating p44/p42 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), stress-activated protein kinase/c-Jun N-terminal kinase (SAPK/JNK), and p38 MAPK in osteoblast-like ...
