Novel Path to Activation of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells: Up-Regulation of gp130 Creates an Autocrine Activation Loop by IL-6 and Its Soluble Receptor
Abstract This study describes a novel path to the activation of smooth muscle cells (SMC) by the IL-6/soluble IL-6 receptor (sIL-6R) system. Human vascular SMC constitutively express only scant amounts of IL-6R and so do not respond to stimulation with this cytokine. We show that SMC also do not con...
