Interleukin 6 (IL6) is also known as HGF, BSF2, HSF and IFNB2, originally identified as a B cell differentiation factor, is a multifunctional cytokine that regulates immune responses, hematopoiesis, acute phase responses, and inflammatory reactions.It is secreted by T cells, macrophages , monocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, et.al. to stimulate immune response to trauma, especially burns or other tissue damage leading to inflammation. Interleukin 6 has been shown to interact with interleukin6 receptor and glycoprotein. IL6 is relevant to many disease processes such as diabetes, atherosclerosis, depression, Alzheimers Disease, systemic, lupus erythematosus, prostate cancer and rheumatoid arthritis. Advanced/metastatic cancer patients have higher levels of IL6 in their blood. Hence there is an interest in developing antiIL6 agents as therapy against many of these diseases. - Proteine/Peptide
