IL-6 protein is a multifunctional cytokine that plays multiple biological functions in immunity, tissue regeneration, and metabolism. After binding to IL6R, the resulting complex binds to the signaling subunit IL6ST/gp130, triggering the intracellular IL6 signaling pathway. GMP IL-6 Protein, Human is the recombinant human-derived IL-6 protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free. GMP IL-6 Protein, Human, has molecular weight of ~20.0 kDa.

GMP IL-6 Protein, a versatile cytokine, performs various biological functions in immunity, tissue regeneration, and metabolism. Upon binding to IL6R, the resulting complex associates with the signaling subunit IL6ST/gp130, triggering the intracellular IL6-signaling pathway. Its interaction with membrane-bound IL6R and IL6ST stimulates 'classic signaling,' while the binding of IL6 and soluble IL6R to IL6ST induces 'trans-signaling.' Moreover, 'cluster signaling' occurs when membrane-bound IL6:IL6R complexes on transmitter cells activate IL6ST receptors on neighboring receiver cells. IL-6 serves as a potent inducer of the acute phase response, rapidly mobilizing host defenses during infection and tissue injury, although excessive IL6 synthesis is implicated in disease pathology. In the innate immune response, IL-6 is synthesized by myeloid cells, such as macrophages and dendritic cells, upon recognizing pathogens through toll-like receptors at the infection or tissue injury site. In the adaptive immune response, IL-6 is essential for B-cell differentiation into immunoglobulin-secreting cells and plays a major role in the differentiation of CD4(+) T cell subsets. It is a crucial factor in the development of T follicular helper (Tfh) cells necessary for germinal-center formation and is required to drive naive CD4(+) T cells to the Th17 lineage. Additionally, IL-6 is essential for the proliferation of myeloma cells and the survival of plasmablast cells.
