Abstract
⺠Interleukin-6 is a multifunctional cytokine which regulates growth of prostate cancer. ⺠Stimulation of androgen receptor activity by interleukin-6 may enhance or inhibit proliferation. ⺠Interleukin-6 inhibits apoptosis in several prostate cancer cell lines. ⺠Suppressor of cytokine signalling-3 is expressed in prostate cancer. ⺠Antibody CNTO 328 (Anti IL-6) was tested in preclinical research and clinical trials.
