Interleukin‐6 receptor inhibitor tocilizumab ameliorates periodontal inflammation in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and periodontitis as well as tumor necrosis factor inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Dental Research, 2015
AbstractInterleukin‐6 (IL‐6) may play a pathological role in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and periodontitis. Although the efficacy of medication with IL‐6 receptor inhibitor, tocilizumab (TCZ), has been demonstrated in the treatment of RA, very little is known about whether TCZ therapy affects periodontitis.

Benefit and risk associated with interleukin-6 receptor inhibitor administration during severe COVID-19: a retrospective multicentric study [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
During severe and critical COVID-19, therapeutic options remain scarce. Among interventions, the use of interleukin-6 receptor inhibitor (IL-6Ri) is especially controversial due to persistent uncertainty about their efficacy and safety.

Exploring the Role of Interleukin-6 Receptor Inhibitor Tocilizumab in Patients with Active Rheumatoid Arthritis and Periodontal Disease. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Clin Med, 2021
Background: The aim of our study was to explore the influence of weekly subcutaneous administration of interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor inhibitor tocilizumab (TCZ) on periodontal status in a local longitudinal study of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and periodontal disease (PD).

Human myeloma cells shed the interleukin‐6 receptor: inhibition by tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase‐3 and a hydroxamate‐based metalloproteinase inhibitor [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, 1998
Interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) is the major growth factor for human myeloma cells, exerting its effect through the IL‐6 receptor (IL‐6R). A soluble form of IL‐6R (sIL‐6R) has been identified, which increases the sensitivity of myeloma cells to IL‐6. In patients with multiple myeloma (MM), serum concentrations of sIL‐6R are elevated and associated with poor ...

Switching from interleukin-6 receptor inhibitors to the direct interleukin-6 inhibitor olokizumab in patients with rheumatoid arthritis: efficacy and safety during one year of therapy

open access: yesСовременная ревматология
Objective: to investigate the efficacy and safety of olokizumab (OKZ) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) over a 12-month period after switching from interleukin (IL)-6 receptor inhibitors (iIL6R) for non-medical reasons.Material and methods.

B-lymphocyte subpopulations in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and the effect of an interleukin-6 receptor inhibitor on them.

open access: yesНаучно-практическая ревматология, 2019
The clinical efficacy and safety of interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor blockade have been well studied, but the data on the impact of therapeutic inhibition of IL-6 on B cells are scarce and contradictory.

657 Interleukin-6 receptor blockade for management of immune checkpoint inhibitor related adverse events in patients with melanoma

open access: yesJournal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2020
Background Management of certain immune mediated adverse events (irAEs) can be challenging and may require prolonged/chronic immune suppression with corticosteroids or other immunosuppressant which could compromise and even reverse the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI).

In vitro selection of an RNA aptamer yields an interleukin-6/interleukin-6 receptor interaction inhibitor [PDF]

open access: yesBioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2021
ABSTRACT Interleukin-6 (IL-6) binds to the IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) subunit, related to autoimmune diseases and cytokine storm in COVID-19. In this study, we performed systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment and identified a novel RNA aptamer. This RNA aptamer not only bound to IL-6R with a dissociation constant of 200 n m,
