Here, we summarize the cellular sources of IL-9, focusing principally on T cells. We also describe the main targets of IL-9 in vivo and discuss the downstream effects of IL-9-induced signalling on ...

However, the measurement of sIL-2R is simple compared to the complex story behind this biomarker that has become so central to the study of immune-mediated disease. Why measure soluble interleukin-2 ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Polymorphisms in the interleukin-6 promoter region have been associated with diseases. In this study we investigated the — 634G/C and —174G/C ...

Patients with psoriasis have a higher level of interleukin-30 (IL-30) than healthy patients, according to a recent study. A new study has found that patients with psoriasis have a higher level of ...

Researchers have identified a novel strategy to reduce immune-related adverse events from immunotherapy treatment by targeting the cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6). Researchers at The University of Texas ...

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic cytokine secreted by T cells and macrophages to activate immune responses during infection or after trauma. IL-6 plays an important role in a number of bodily ...

Background. The interplay between Candida species and pattern recognition receptors, interleukins, kynurenine, and T cells has been studied in murine and ex vivo human studies, but data are lacking ...

Researchers investigating ways of prompting the immune system to recognise and kill tumour cells have found that a drug containing parts of the diptheria toxin appears to work well in patients with ...
