Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a multidirectional cytokine with diverse biological functions that was originally identified as an inducible factor for B-cell, which has a role in the maturation of antibody-producing cells. Interleukin-6 is closely related to other cytokines with diverse activities. It was found to affect blood vessels, neurons and T cells (1). In the 1980’s interlukin-6 was discovered by Weissenbach and it is play a major role in sharp inflammation (2). Interleukin-6 is the sixth interleukin to be discovered, hence its name (3). It is a mini polypeptide consisting of four \u03b1-helices containing (184) amino acid residues and has a molecular weight between 19 and 28 kDa glycosylation sites and two disulfide bonds usually in monomer form (4). High levels of IL-6 are indicative of many inflammatory diseases, including arthritis in children, rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn\u2019s disease and systemic lupus erythematosus (5). It also plays an important role in autoimmune cell differentiation metabolism and disease treatment etc.(6). Nearly t al cells of immune system cells and stromal cells (mast cells, T-lymphocytes, dendritic, macrophages, monocytes cells, B-lymphocytes, non-lymphocytic cells such as keratinocytes, fibroblasts, glomerular mesangial cells, endothelial cells, and tumour cells) can produce IL-6 (7). IL-6 is also the strongest indicator of cardiovascular conditions and cardiovascular. It refers to all causes of mortality, heart failure, myocardial infarction and mortality resulting from cancer patients with healthy coronary heart disease. It also may play a role as a marker for a pathophysiological pathway (8).<\/span><\/p>\n
