<b>Purpose:</b> Pro-inflammatory cytokines within the tumor microenvironment, such as IL-6, contribute to the maintenance of stem cells and promote their survival following treatment.
Addition of IL-17A, IL-17F and TNFα to synovial fibroblasts from patients with inflammatory arthritis resulted in significant production of IL-6 and IL-8, which was reduced to a larger extent by combined blockade of IL-17A and IL-17F than blockade of IL-17A alone.
IL-6/STAT3 signaling is aberrantly activated in lung tumorigenesis and metastasis, however, the roles and mechanisms of action of IL-6 remain controversial.
Noticeably, lung metastasis was greatly increased in Gprc5a-knockout (ko) (5a-/-) mice compared to wild-type (WT) mice, which correlated with upregulated IL-6 in the tumor microenvironment.

Chemokine C-C motif ligand 3 (CCL3) levels were inversely associated with risk of VTE (hazard ratio [HR] per double increase, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.385, 95% CI: 0.161-0.925, <i>p =</i> 0.033), while there was no association between the risk of VTE and serum levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-11, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), respectively.
While glucocorticoids are the mainstay of treatment for GCA, new breakthrough treatments such as tocilizumab (an anti-IL-6 receptor antibody) have shown great promise in causing disease remission and reducing the cumulative glucocorticoid dose.
In this study, we evaluated serum preoperative proinflammatory cytokine levels and investigated the correlation between preoperative interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-8 levels and survival of patients with esophageal cancer.

Since the production of autoantibodies and inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and IL-17, are regulated by the classical pathways and are increased in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), NF-κB inhibitors are used to suppress inflammation and joint destruction in RA models.
Conclusion Taken together, these findings identified a critical link between IL-6 trans-signaling and structural alterations of peritoneal membrane and it might be a potential target for the treatment of PD patients who have developed peritoneal alterations.
Importantly, we further demonstrated that overexpressing PHD2 attenuated inflammation in colon cancer xenograft mice through weakening accumulation of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and M2-like tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), as well as secretions of pro-inflammatory cytokines including G-CSF, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β, and IL-4.

The results showed that, compared to the OA group, the OA + treadmill and OA + wheel groups had lower levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α, and similar levels of p-P65, p-JNK, and P-IκBα.
Plasma levels of leptin, resistin, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), macrophage chemoattractant protein-1 (CCL2), tumor necrosis factor-alfa (TNF-α), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were correlated with clinical scores and were compared among different ASD subgroups according to the presence or absence of: (i) GI symptoms, (ii) regressive onset of autism.
