Human myeloma cells shed the interleukin‐6 receptor: inhibition by tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase‐3 and a hydroxamate‐based metalloproteinase inhibitor

Interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) is the major growth factor for human myeloma cells, exerting its effect through the IL‐6 receptor (IL‐6R). A soluble form of IL‐6R (sIL‐6R) has been identified, which increases the sensitivity of myeloma cells to IL‐6. In patients with multiple myeloma (MM), serum concentrations...
