title: [The role of IL-6/sIL-6R complex and its natural inhibitor sgp130 in modulation of inflammatory process].
abstract: IL-6/sIL-6R complex belongs to one of the most pleiotropic ligand-receptor system. Participating in leukocytes migration and apoptosis it plays a crucial role in modulation of inflammatory process. Firstly it contributes to resolution of acute inflammatory response regulating a maintaining of organism's homeostasis. Secondly it is a main factor responsible for transition between acute and chronic inflammatory reaction, that underlies the pathogenesis of chronic inflammatory diseases. Presented work focus on the IL-6/sIL-6R structure, function, formation, mechanism of action as well as the role of its natural inhibitor sgp130 in mentioned processes.
