IL-6 deficiency leads to increased emotionality in mice: evidence in transgenic mice carrying a null mutation for IL-6.

Journal of neuroimmunology - 1 Dec 1998

Armario A, Hernández J, Bluethmann H, Hidalgo J

Abstract excerpt

The role of interleukin-6 (IL-6) on emotional behavior was studied in two experiments using transgenic mice carrying a null mutation for IL-6 (IL-6(-/-)). In the first experiment, IL-6(-/-) mice were compared with the two wild-type strains contributing to the genetic background of the transgenic mice, namely C57BL/6J and 129/SvJ, as well as with the F2 offspring of C57BL/6J x 129/SvJ mice. The two parental...
