Interleukin-6 gene (IL-6): a possible role in brain morphology in the healthy adult brain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Cytokines such as interleukin 6 (IL-6) have been implicated in dual functions in neuropsychiatric disorders. Little is known about the genetic predisposition to neurodegenerative and neuroproliferative properties of cytokine genes.

Repurposing Interleukin-6 Inhibitors to Combat COVID-19. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a pandemic with major implications across the world. One of the most frequent causes of death from SARS-CoV-2 is fatal pneumonia from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which is associated

Interleukin-6 in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder pathophysiology

open access: yesNeurology: Neuroimmunology & Neuroinflammation, 2020
Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a rare autoimmune disorder that preferentially affects the spinal cord and optic nerve. Most patients with NMOSD experience severe relapses that lead to permanent neurologic disability; therefore ...

Fetal and early neonatal interleukin-6 response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
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

Structural Understanding of Interleukin 6 Family Cytokine Signaling and Targeted Therapies: Focus on Interleukin 11

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Cytokines are small signaling proteins that have central roles in inflammation and cell survival. In the half-century since the discovery of the first cytokines, the interferons, over fifty cytokines have been identified. Amongst these is interleukin (IL)

Residual inflammatory risk associated with interleukin-18 and interleukin-6 after successful interleukin-1β inhibition with canakinumab: further rationale for the development of targeted anti-cytokine therapies for the treatment of atherothrombosis.

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 2020
AIMS The Canakinumab Antiinflammatory Thrombosis Outcomes Study (CANTOS) established that targeting inflammation with interleukin-1β (IL-1β) inhibition can significantly reduce cardiovascular (CV) event rates in the absence of any beneficial effects on ...

Early-life adversity accelerates cellular ageing and affects adult inflammation: experimental evidence from the European starling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Early-life adversity is associated with accelerated cellular ageing during development and increased inflammation during adulthood. However, human studies can only establish correlation, not causation, and existing experimental animal approaches alter ...

Interleukin-6 signalling in health and disease

open access: yesF1000Research, 2020
Biochemically, interleukin-6 belongs to the class of four-helical cytokines. The cytokine can be synthesised and secreted by many cells. It acts via a cell surface-expressed interleukin-6 receptor, which is not signalling competent.

Influence of oxidative stress, diaphragm fatigue, and inspiratory muscle training on the plasma cytokine response to maximum sustainable voluntary ventilation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The influence of oxidative stress, diaphragm fatigue, and inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on the cytokine response to maximum sustainable voluntary ventilation (MSVV) is unknown.
