IL6 and neoplasm: It thus appears that two signatures are related to IL6 in EOCs: a 33-gene signature common to advanced stage and LMP EOCs and associated to control of cell growth and death, while the 7-gene signature, associated only to advanced-stage EOCs likely presenting NFkB transcriptional activation, might be a determinant of tumor aggressiveness, and may be associated with a pathway regulating vascular thrombosis.
