Target Information

IL-6 encodes a cytokine involved in inflammation and B cell maturation.
This endogenous pyrogen can induce fever in autoimmune diseases or infections.
It is primarily expressed at sites of acute and chronic inflammation, secreted into serum, and induces transcriptional inflammatory responses via the interleukin 6 receptor alpha.
IL-6 function is implicated in inflammation-associated diseases such as diabetes mellitus and systemic juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.
Elevated IL-6 levels have been observed in viral infections, including COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2).
Associated diseases include Kaposi Sarcoma and Rheumatoid Arthritis (Systemic Juvenile).
