Mutational Analysis of Interleukin-11 and its Consequences on Cancer and COVID-19 Related Cytokine Storm -An Extensive Molecular Dynamics Study
2024-01-31
Abstract excerpt
Interleukin-11 is a pleiotropic cytokine that is known to play an important role in the progression of various forms of cancer by modulating the survival and proliferation of tumour cells. IL11 also demonstrates a structural homology to IL6 - the predominant cytokine involved in COVID-19. This makes IL11 a potential therapeutic target in both diseases. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of two mutations- R135...
