Novel genetic variants of transferrin receptor 2 exon 4 and cytokines profile of anemic and nonanemic pregnant women in Central Java, Indonesia

open access: yesAsian Pacific Journal of Reproduction, 2020
Objective: To assess the association between genetic variants of transferrin receptor 2 (TFR2) exon 4 and anemia status and to describe the expression levels of several cytokines, hepcidin, soluble transferrin receptor and erythropoietin.

Blood cytokine levels in patients with alcohol dependence during early withdrawal treatment

open access: yesTaiwanese 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]

open access: yesEuropean 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 ...

Methotrexate use, not interleukin 33, is associated with lower carotid intima-media thickness in patients with rheumatoid arthritis

open access: yesAdvances in Rheumatology, 2019
Background Rheumatoid arthritis is a risk factor for early mortality due to cardiovascular disease. Interleukin-33 appears to protect against the development of atherosclerosis.

Cytokine soluble receptors in perinatal and early neonatal life

open access: yesMediators 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 ...

Soluble interleukin-6 receptor levels in pleural effusions

open access: yesRespiratory 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 ...

Blood cytokine concentrations in pediatric patients with anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma

open access: yesHaematologica, 2018
Patients with anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma often present with B-symptoms or hemophagocytosis and generate an anti-tumor immune response.

The balance of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-6·soluble IL-6 receptor (sIL-6R), and IL-6·sIL-6R·sgp130 complexes allows simultaneous classic and trans-signaling

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2018
Interleukin (IL-)6 is the major pro-inflammatory cytokine within the IL-6 family. IL-6 signals via glycoprotein 130 (gp130) and the membrane-bound or soluble IL-6 receptor (IL-6R), referred to as classic or trans-signaling, respectively.

A complex of the soluble interleukin‐6 receptor and interleukin‐6 is internalized via the signal transducer gp130 [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1996
In human body fluids a soluble form of the interleukin‐6 receptor (sIL‐6R) has been found which together with interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) acts agonistically on cells expressing the signal transducer gp130. The means by which the sIL‐6R is removed from the circulation is unknown.

Effect of soluble interleukin-6 receptor α and interleukin-6 secreted by polymorphonuclear leukocytes on tumor necrosis factor-α expression and its production by peripheral blood mononuclear cells

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2002
Background: It has recently been shown that soluble interleukin-6 receptor (sIL-6R) alone or complexed with interleukin (IL)-6, besides their regulatory role in a wide variety of both normal and abnormal biologic reactions mediated by IL-6, could be an ...
