Role of interleukin-15 and interleukin-18 in the secretion of sIL-6R and sgp130 by human neutrophils
Mediators of Inflammation, 2003 Background: Available data indicate that neutrophils (PMN) produce a wide range of cytokines with the potential to modulate immune response. Recent investigation have shown that interleukin (IL)-15 and IL-18 potentiated several functions of normal ...

Modification of Soluble Immunological Parameters during Treatment with Interleukin-2
The International Journal of Biological Markers, 1993 In the present study we tested numerous soluble immunological parameters (soluble Interleukin 2 receptor, Beta 2 microglobulin, Neopterin, soluble CD8 antigen, gamma Interferon and alpha Tumor Necrosis Factor) in sera obtained from 18 advanced cancer ...

Blood cytokine levels in patients with alcohol dependence during early withdrawal treatment
Taiwanese Journal of Psychiatry, 2023 Objectives: Alcohol is known to modulate the immune system, which is associated with the pathophysiology of alcohol dependence (AD). Interleukin-6 (IL-6), soluble IL-6 receptor (sIL-6R), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) are widely studied immune ...

Soluble Human Interleukin‐6 Receptor [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1995 The extracellular domain of the human interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) receptor, comprising 339 amino acids following the signal peptide, has been expressed in baculovirus‐infected insect cells (Sf158). When the soluble receptor secreted into the culture medium was purified by affinity chromatography, using IL‐6 immobilized on Sepharose, 6 mg soluble receptor was ...

Cytokine soluble receptors in perinatal and early neonatal life
Mediators of Inflammation, 2003 Background: In contrast to cellular receptors, soluble receptors do not enhance the cellular activation because they do not have transmembranic and cytoplasmic parts, acting thereby as endogenous regulatory mechanisms against systemic functions of ...

Mediators of Inflammation, 1998 We investigated the serum concentrations of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and two IL-6 family of cytokines (leukaemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) as well as IL-6 soluble receptor (sIL-6R) using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent ...

Soluble interleukin-6 receptor levels in pleural effusions
Respiratory Medicine, 1996 Generation of soluble cytokine receptors is a general phenomenon, and the roles of several such receptors have been investigated in clinical settings. Unlike other soluble cytokine receptors, soluble interleukin-6 receptor (sIL-6R) can act as an agonist and thus is implicated as an important modulator in the acute-phase reaction of prolonged ...
