Higher levels of inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), soluble tumor necrosis factor (sTNFR-2), and lower levels of adipokines may cause cells to adopt several “hallmarks of cancer” (Hanahan and Weinberg, 2011), including increased angiogenesis, cellular proliferation, and escape from apoptosis (Irwin and Cole, 2011; Murphy et al., 2018). Here, IL6 is linked to cancer.
