Abstract:
Interleukin-6 plays a central role in regulating the immune system,
hematopoiesis, and acute phase reaction. It interacts with a receptor
complex consisting of a specific ligand-binding protein (IL-6R, gp80) and
a signal transduction protein (gp130). In this report, serum levels of IL-
6 and a soluble form of the interleukin-6 receptor (sIL-6R) were evaluated
in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. The correlation between IL-6
and sIL-6R values, the stage of hepatocellular carcinoma, and main liver
function tests was also studied.
