Curcumin and Interleukin-6 (IL-6)
Curcumin has been shown to have numerous cytotoxic effects on cancer stem cells (CSCs). This is due to its suppression of the release of cytokines, particularly interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8 and IL-1, which stimulate CSCs, and also to its effects at multiple sites along CSC pathways, such as Wnt, Notch, Hedgehog and FAK. In spite of its multiple actions targeting CSCs, curcumin has little toxicity a...
متن کاملSpecial issue on Interleukin-6 (IL-6)
Cytokines are essential modulators of the immune response. In the last decade there has been a number of cytokines considered targets for the development of biological therapies with the goal of blocking their activities and modulate the course of the immune response, primarily in the context of inflammatory diseases. IL-6 was first identified in the mid-1980s [1], but for almost two decades th...

Note: G/C polymorphism at nucleotide -174 (promoter region) Breast cancer prognosis differs between populations. Despite its lower incidence in Blacks when compared to Caucasians, mortality among the former is higher. Genetic factors involved in the molecular pathways regulating tumor development have been adduced to explain these differences, and it has been suggested that the IL-6 gene is a s...
متن کاملComparing serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in acute pyelonephritis versus acute cystitis in 6 months to 12 years old children
Background and Objectives: Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) is a common disorder in pediatrics and early diagnosis is important. However, in young children diagnosis is problematic. A problem is variety in sign and symptoms and for exact diagnosis in some case we need expensive modalities. Thus, new way is needed. IL-6 at last decades was preferred to UTI diagnosis and upper/lower involvement dif...
متن کاملHuman marrow stromal cells: response to interleukin-6 (IL-6) and control of IL-6 expression.
Production of interleukin-6 (IL-6) by marrow stromal cells from human long-term marrow cultures and from stromal cells transformed with simian virus 40 was examined. As with other cultured mesenchymal cells, unstimulated stromal cells produced undetectable amounts of IL-6 mRNA when assayed by Northern blots. However, within 30 minutes after exposure of transformed marrow stromal cells to the in...
