Introduction of the human interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor in murine IL-3-dependent hematopoietic cells restores responsiveness to IL-6.
To create experimental systems that facilitate studies aimed at the responsiveness of hematopoietic progenitors to interleukin (IL)-6 in combination with IL-3, we introduced the human IL-6 receptor (hIL-6R) into the IL-3-dependent cell line 32D. For this purpose, a retroviral vector containing the hIL-6R cDNA was constructed. 32D parental cells did not respond to IL-6, neither alone nor in comb...
متن کاملHuman 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 کاملSerum soluble interleukin 6 (IL-6) receptor and IL-6/soluble IL-6 receptor complex in systemic juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.
By using a sandwich ELISA, soluble human IL-6 receptor (sIL-6 R) levels were measured in the sera of 20 healthy children and of 25 patients with systemic juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA). In patients with systemic JRA, serum sIL-6 R levels (114.6 +/- 37.7 ng/ml) were significantly lower (P < 0.01) than those of healthy children (161.2 +/- 45.5 ng/ml). Serum sIL-6 R levels were negatively cor...
متن کاملExpression of the interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-6 receptor, and gp130 genes in acute leukemia.
Expression patterns of interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-6 receptor (IL-6R), and gp130 genes in 39 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), in 23 patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and in 7 patients with acute mixed lineage leukemia (AMLL) were studied by quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. Significant levels of IL-6 were expressed in 8 (21%) of 39 AML patient...
متن کاملInterleukin-6 (IL-6) production by astrocytes: autocrine regulation by IL-6 and the soluble IL-6 receptor.
In the CNS, astrocytes are a major inducible source of interleukin-6 (IL-6). Although IL-6 has beneficial effects in the CNS because of its neurotrophic properties, its overexpression is generally detrimental, adding to the pathophysiology associated with CNS disorders. Many factors have been shown to induce IL-6 expression by astrocytes, particularly the cytokines tumor necrosis factor-alpha (...
