IL-6 may be anti-inflammatory
editDr. Bente Klarlund Pedersen has show IL-6 to be an anti-inflammatory agent when produced through muscular contraction in exercise. This would seem to call anti-IL-6 therapies into question. "IL-6 is the myokine prototype (Fig. 7). The systemic level of IL-6 increases markedly with exercise and skeletal muscle is the main source of origin. Muscle contractions lead to the production and release into the circulation of IL-6, which appears to have numerous biological effects, including effects on glucose and fat metabolism. In addition, IL-6 has a role in myogenesis and mediates anti-inflammatory effects." Muscle as a secretory organ.

- All mention of possible beneficial effects of exercise-induced IL-6 seems to belong in the IL-6 article - not in this summary of anti-IL-6 drugs/therapies. - Rod57 (talk) 21:03, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

Could group those that act on IL-6 and those that act on the main receptor
editSince the effects and side-effects are expected to be different, we could group those that act on IL-6 separate from those that act on the main receptor ? - Rod57 (talk) 14:35, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
