Interleukin 6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic cytokine that is produced by many different cell types and plays a role in a wide range of functions, such as immune responses, acute-phase reactions, and hematopoiesis. Among other things it augments antibody production from activated B cells in vitro.
Cross-reactivity has been assessed and confirmed with certain non-human primate species.
