background: periodontal disease has a multifactorial etiology. a combination of microbial agents and environmental, habitual, systemic, and genetic risk factors is responsible for the development of periodontal disease. host immune response causes the destruction of tooth‑supporting structure and eventual tooth loss. this study aimed to assess the correlation of interleukin 6 (il‑6) ‑174‑gc and...

The use of inhibiting cytokine-binding-proteins (CBPs) such as soluble cytokine receptors and anticytokine antibodies is considered for the treatment of cytokine-dependent diseases. The pleiotropic cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a target for immunointervention in numerous pathologic situations, including multiple myeloma, B-cell lymphoma, and rheumatoid arthritis. An antitumor response was ob...
