摘要
Interleukin 6 (IL-6) plays a significant role in many rheumatological diseases and has been described as both a pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine. IL-6 blockade has been investigated in various rheumatic diseases and a humanised anti-IL-6 receptor antibody has been licensed for use in rheumatoid arthritis, systemic and polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis. The increasing clinical experience of IL-6 blockade in rheumatic diseases adds to the existing knowledge regarding the physiological and pathological roles of IL-6. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.
