Interleukin-6 stimulates gene expression of extracellular matrix components in bovine mesangial cells in culture

The effect of interleukin-6 (IL-6) on gene expression of extracellular matrix components in bovine mesangial cells in culture has been investigated. IL-6 (100 U/ml) time dependently increased the steady state expression of mRNAs coding for α1 collagen III and fibronectin, both transcripts being 1.5-...
