| Abstract: | p
= 0.028). IL-6 levels in cancer tissues showed no correlation with the incidence of venous invasion, lymphatic invasion, lymph
node involvement, or liver metastasis. The IL-6 level in cancer tissue tended to decrease as the cancer penetration extended.
Our results suggest that IL-6 may play a role in human colorectal cancer growth. |
