Interleukin 6 (IL-6) is an interleukin that acts as both a pro-inflammatory cytokine and an anti-inflammatory myokine. In addition, osteoblasts secrete IL-6 to stimulate osteoclast formation. Smooth muscle cells in the tunica media of many blood vessels also produce IL-6 as a pro-inflammatory cytokine. IL-6's role as an anti-inflammatory myokine is mediated through its inhibitory effects on TNF-alpha and IL-1 and its activation of IL-1ra and IL-10. There is some early evidence that IL-6 can be used as an inflammatory marker for severe COVID-19 infection with poor prognosis, in the context of the wider coronavirus pandemic.
Immobilized Human IL-6, His tag at 10 μg/mL (50 μL/well) can bind IL-6R alpha/CD126 Fc Chimera, Human (UA010448) with EC50 of 19.56-26.66 ng/ml.
Measured in a cell proliferation assay using TF‑1 human erythroleukemic cells. The ED50 for this effect is 0.2-0.4 ng/mL.
