IL6 and depressive symptom measurement: For example, IL-1 induces sensory neural sensitization to pain, probably trough tyrosine kinases (154); IL-6 is released by hepatocytes during pain stimuli and by neurons and glial cells and has been associated to hyperalgesia, depression, fatigue and sympathetic nervous system activation (153); and IL-17 modulates pain by increasing nociceptor excitability (155).
