Research Abstract

This study demonstrated that systemic increase of IL-6 was an extrinsic factor counteracting tumor-specific Th1 differentiation, and was responsible for the age-associated defect in mounting protective immunity against the tumor in aged animals. Further analysis revealed that IFN-gamma from tumor-specific Th1 cells was indispensable for the beneficial effects of IL-6 blockade on anti-tumor immune responses in aged hosts.
