Interleukin 6 (IL-6) is a multifunctional cytokine that exerts its activities by binding to a high-affinity receptor complex consisting of two membrane glycoproteins: an 80kD ligand binding subunit (IL-6 R/CD126) and a 130kD nonligand-binding signal-transducing subunit (gp130/CD130).1-4 Unlike gp130 that is expressed ubiquitously, the cellular distribution of IL-6 R is predominantly limited to hepatocytes and leukocyte subpopulations such as monocytes, neutrophils, T and B cells. Soluble IL-6 R has been found in various body fluids.5 Soluble IL-6 R binds IL-6 with an affinity similar to that of the membrane-bound IL-6 R. More importantly, the soluble IL-6 R/IL-6 complex is capable of interacting with the membrane-bound gp130 to activate cells that lack an integral membrane IL-6 R. It has been documented that elevated soluble IL-6 R is associated with numerous diseases including arthritic lesions, multiple myeloma and Crohn
