- Role of interleukin-6 in cancer progression and therapeutic resistance (2016, background): “It has a characteristic structure made up of four long α-helices arranged in an up–up–down–down topology [21].”
- Current concepts in the diagnosis and management of cytokine release syndrome. (2014, background): “However, when IL-6 levels are elevated, soluble IL-6R can also initiate trans-signaling, which occurs on a much wider array of cells.(30) Current models hold that antiinflammatory properties of IL-6 are likely mediated via classic signaling, whereas proinflammatory responses occur as a result of tra”
- Obesity and inflammation: the linking mechanism and the complications (2016, background): “Subsequently, the IL-6/IL-6R complex associates with glycoprotein 130 (gp130), leading to gp130-homodimer formation and signal initiation [10].”
- IL-6 Trans-Signaling via the Soluble IL-6 Receptor: Importance for the Pro-Inflammatory Activities of IL-6 (2012, background): “Under physiologic conditions IL-6 is thought to act in a paracrine fashion [69].”
- The molecular details of cytokine signaling via the JAK/STAT pathway (2018, background): “Although gp130 is found ubiquitously expressed, IL-6Rα is found only on hepatocytes and some leukocytes.(236) However, soluble IL-6Rα is released from the liver and this allows”
- Signaling pathways involved in ischemic stroke: molecular mechanisms and therapeutic interventions (2022, background): “Reportedly, the former is deemed to be neuroprotective and helps maintain neuronal homeostasis,(248) whereas the latter contributes to IL-6-induced pro-inflammatory outcomes.(249,250) IL-6 levels are upregulated during cerebral ischemia, which correlates with infarct volumes and survival rates.”
- Cytokines in Radiobiological Responses: A Review (2012, positive): “Importantly, ‘‘classic’’ IL-6 signaling has regenerative and anti-inflammatory consequences, while trans-signaling is responsible for many of IL-6s pro-inflammatory effects (20).”
