Interleukin 6 (IL-6) is a protein, produced by immune cells in the human body in response to trauma, burns, cancers, and infections. IL-6 affects hematopoiesis, metabolism, and organ development. Interleukin 6 test plays a key role in monitoring chronic inflammation (related to autoimmune diseases and inflammatory diseases) and even in the case of cytokine storm with regard to COVID-19. IL-6 has evolved from being a marker of inflammation to a successful target to control inflammation.
The IL-6 test is done in case of signs and symptoms associated with infection, sepsis, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and to evaluate stroke, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. The test helps evaluate the exact amount of interleukin in the blood. People are advised to undergo IL 6 test if there are signs and symptoms of the above-mentioned diseases. An elevated level of IL-6 indicates that there is an inflammatory condition and the person needs immediate medical attention.
The IL-6 test cost varies somewhere between Rs 1000 to Rs 2000. You can book an IL-6 test at various diagnostics centres.
