IL6 and Guillain-Barre syndrome: We found serum sRAGE levels in patients with the acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN) subtype of GBS, but not other subtypes, were significantly lower than those in healthy controls, and were significantly correlated with GBS disability score and Erasmus GBS outcome score, while serum HMGB1, IL-6, and TNF-α levels in all subtypes of GBS were significantly higher than those in healthy controls.
