IL-6 levels predict disease variant and extent of organ involvement in patients with mastocytosis
Abstract
Mastocytosis is often associated with organ involvement and hematological disorders. Patients may also exhibit elevated levels of plasma IL-6. To gain insight into the relevance of this observation, we correlated plasma levels of IL-6 and soluble IL-6 receptor (sIL-6R) with multiple disease parameters in 29 patients with mastocytosis. Mean plasma IL-6 levels were elevated in patients compared to healthy controls (P < 0.0001). Disease category...
