Ten years have passed since the molecular cloning of interleukin 6 (IL-6) in 1986. IL-6 is a
typical cytokine, exhibiting functional pleiotropy and redundancy. IL-6 is involved in the …

Inflammatory disorders result from continuous inflammation in injured sites. Many molecules
are involved in this process; the inhibition of which could prevent the inflammation …

F weights of recombinant human (rh) and murine IL-11 are 19,144 daltons6 and 19,154
daltons, 2 respectively. Mature IRST ISOLATED IN 1990, interleukin-11 (IL-11) has proven to …

Abstract The interleukin 6 (IL-6) cytokine family, which includes IL-6, leukemia inhibitory
factor (LIF), oncostatin M (OSM), ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), IL-11 and cardiotrophin …

Abstract Interleukin 6 (IL‐6) and related cytokines, such as leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF),
oncostatin M (OSM), ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) and IL‐11 exhibit multiple functions …

To address the role of IL-11 in viral airways dysfunction, we determined whether infectious
agents that exacerbate asthma stimulate stromal cell IL-11 production, determined whether …

Abstract Interleukin 11 (IL-11) is a pleiotropic cytokine with biological activities on many
different cell types. Recombinant human IL-11 (rhIL-11) is produced by recombinant DNA …

Review discusses newly emerging role for IL-11 in inflammation-associated cancers of the
gastrointestinal tract. IL-11, a member of the IL-6 family of cytokines, exerts pleiotropic …

Interleukin-11 is a pleotropic cytokine produced by lung stromal cells in response to
respiratory viruses, cytokines, and histamine. To further define its potential effector functions …

IL-11 is a unique growth factor derived from cells making up the HM. Although cloned based
on IL-6-like bioactivity, IL-11 and IL-6 have distinct biologic profiles (Table 1). IL-11, like …
