Soluble membrane receptors, interleukin 6, procalcitonin and C reactive protein as prognostic markers in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:The objective of this study was to explore the diagnostic and prognostic value of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell 1 (sTREM-1), soluble cluster of differentiation 14 (sCD14), soluble cluster of differentiation 163 (sCD163),

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.

Expression of interleukin-6 and interleukin-6 receptor in Hodgkin's disease [PDF]
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a multipotent lymphokine that can mediate differentiation of B cells into Ig-secreting cells, stimulate the growth of plasmacytomas, hybridomas, and T cells, and induce acute- phase proteins in liver cells. It has been suggested that IL-6 is involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases by autocrine or paracrine pathways.

On the role of bacterial metalloproteases in COVID-19 associated cytokine storm
The cytokine release syndrome or cytokine storm, which is the hyper-induction of inflammatory responses has a central role in the mortality rate of COVID-19 and some other viral infections.

Pro- and anti-apoptotic fate decisions induced by di- and trimeric synthetic cytokine receptors
Summary: Synthetic strategies to activate cytokine receptors so far only address standard dimeric cytokine receptor assemblies. The 19 ligands of the tumor necrosis factor superfamily (TNFSF), however, form noncovalent trimers and receptor trimerization ...

Frontiers in Drug Research and Development for Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is idiopathic, lifelong, immune-mediated diseases, for which curative therapies are not yet available. In the last 15 years, the introduction of monoclonal antibodies targeting tumor necrosis factor-α, a cytokine playing ...
