Increased IL-17 and IL-6 Transcripts in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells: Implication for a Robust Proinflammatory Response in Early Stages of Breast Cancer

Increased IL-17 and IL-6 Transcripts in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells: Implication for a Robust Proinflammatory Response in Early Stages of Breast Cancer

Background: Several recent studies demonstrated that transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), by stimulating T regulatory cells, and interleukins 6 and 17 (IL-6, IL-17), by inducing inflammatory reactions, may be critical factors in cancer pathogenesis. Methods: We used quantitative real-time polyme...
