Human marrow stromal cells: response to interleukin-6 (IL-6) and control of IL-6 expression.
Production of interleukin-6 (IL-6) by marrow stromal cells from human long-term marrow cultures and from stromal cells transformed with simian virus 40 was examined. As with other cultured mesenchymal cells, unstimulated stromal cells produced undetectable amounts of IL-6 mRNA when assayed by Northern blots. However, within 30 minutes after exposure of transformed marrow stromal cells to the in...
متن کاملNeutralization effects of interleukin-6 (IL-6) antibodies on sulfur mustard (HD)-induced IL-6 secretion on human epidermal keratinocytes.
The proinflammatory cytokine human interleukin-6 (hIL-6) plays an important role in the early and late courses of inflammation, trauma, and wound healing caused by sulfur mustard (HD). Previously, we demonstrated that hIL-6 might be involved in the early event of structural changes of the signal transducer glycoprotein, which indirectly initiates the cascade of events, such as skin irritation a...
متن کاملCurcumin and Interleukin-6 (IL-6)
Curcumin has been shown to have numerous cytotoxic effects on cancer stem cells (CSCs). This is due to its suppression of the release of cytokines, particularly interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8 and IL-1, which stimulate CSCs, and also to its effects at multiple sites along CSC pathways, such as Wnt, Notch, Hedgehog and FAK. In spite of its multiple actions targeting CSCs, curcumin has little toxicity a...
متن کاملSpecial issue on Interleukin-6 (IL-6)
Cytokines are essential modulators of the immune response. In the last decade there has been a number of cytokines considered targets for the development of biological therapies with the goal of blocking their activities and modulate the course of the immune response, primarily in the context of inflammatory diseases. IL-6 was first identified in the mid-1980s [1], but for almost two decades th...
متن کاملIL 6 ( interleukin 6 ( interferon beta 2 ) )
Note: G/C polymorphism at nucleotide -174 (promoter region) Breast cancer prognosis differs between populations. Despite its lower incidence in Blacks when compared to Caucasians, mortality among the former is higher. Genetic factors involved in the molecular pathways regulating tumor development have been adduced to explain these differences, and it has been suggested that the IL-6 gene is a s...
