Cytokines receptors exist in membrane bound and soluble form. A soluble form of the
human IL-6R is generated by limited proteolysis and alternative splicing. The complex of IL …

The pleiotropic physiological functions of interleukin (IL-) 6 type cytokines range from
embryonic development and tissue homoeostasis to neuronal development and T cell …

Abstract Studies on Interlukin-4 (IL-4) disclosed great deal of information about its various
physiological and pathological roles. All these roles depend upon its interaction and …

The cytokine interleukin‐6 has been identified and cloned among others as B‐cell
stimulatory factor, hepatocyte stimulating factor, plasmacytoma growth factor, and interferon …

Abstract Interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) is a multifunctional cytokine that plays a central role in host
defense due to its wide range of immune and hematopoietic activities and its potent ability to …

Abstract Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a multifunctional cytokine which acts on a wide variety of cells,
exerting growth promotion, growth inhibition, or specific gene expression including cellular …

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic cytokine with various biological activities. Deregulated
overproduction of IL-6 has been found to play pathological roles in chronic inflammatory …

Members of the interleukin (IL)-10 family of cytokines play important roles in regulating
immune responses during host defense but also in autoimmune disorders, inflammatory …

Cytokines are small signaling proteins that have central roles in inflammation and cell
survival. In the half-century since the discovery of the first cytokines, the interferons, over fifty …

Abstract Interleukin-11 (IL-11) and IL-6 are secreted glycoproteins which fulfill important
homeostatic functions. Activation of target cells occurs via membrane-bound IL-11 and IL-6 …
