Specification

• Species: Macaca mulatta
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: Non
• Description: IL6 is a pleiotropic cytokine that plays animportant role in host defense by regulating immune and inflammatoryresponses. Produced by T cells, monocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial cells andkeratinocytes, IL6 has diverse biological functions. It stimulates B-celldifferentiation and antibody production, synergizes with IL-3 inmegakaryocyte development and platelet production, induces expression ofhepatic acute-phase proteins, and regulates bone metabolism. IL6 signalsthrough the IL6 receptor system that consists of two chains, IL6Rα and gp130.
