Multiple Levels of Regulation of the Interleukin-6 System in Stroke

8 Jul 2003

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Serum levels of the cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) rise markedly in stroke. IL-6 is a key regulator of inflammatory mechanisms that play an important part in stroke pathophysiology. The action of IL-6 is modified by its soluble receptor subunits sgp130 and sIL-6R. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether serum levels of the receptor subunits are changed after ischemic stroke and...
