Urine and serum interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8responseswere higher in children with febrile
urinary tract infection (n= 61) than in those with asymptomatic bacteriuria (n= 39). By …

The interaction between human endothelial cells and leukocytes during immunologic and
inflammatory responses is in part mediated through the release of soluble mediators. We …

Cytokines produced by intestinal epithelial cells may function as signals to neighbouring
immune and inflammatory cells. We investigated production of the neutrophil and T …

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) was produced in response to mucosal and systemic infection of mice with
gram-negative bacteria. The IL-6 response was controlled by the lipopolysaccharide gene …

This study compared the repertoire of cytokines produced by epithelial cell lines and human
peripheral blood monocytes in response to Escherichia coli. The A-498 and J82 urinary tract …

We analyzed the presence of the cytokine interleukin-6 in urine samples from interstitial
cystitis patients. Interleukin-6 was significantly elevated in patients with interstitial cystitis …

Abstract Urinary interleukin-6 (UIL-6) and urinary interleukin-8 (UIL-8) concentrations were
measured by immunoassay in 39 and 34 patients respectively, hospitalized with febrile …

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a multipotential cytokine detected in the serum of patients or
experimental animals undergoing bacterial sepsis. To date, the role of IL-6 in gram-negative …

Cultured rat mesangial cells have features of immune effector cells that may contribute to the
derangements in glomerulonephritis. Recent reports have demonstrated that mesangial …

Distribution of interleukin 6 (IL-6) in normal and diseased kidneys was examined by an
immunohistochemical method. Four specimens of normal kidney tissue and 47 specimens …
