Given the important role of IL-1 family cytokines in the development and therapy of inflammatory diseases, including systemic sclerosis, we analyzed the clinical significance of serum levels of selected IL-1 family cytokines (IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-18, IL-33, IL-37 and IL-38) in LoS patients (n = 30) using the standardized disease assessment tools and comparison to healthy controls (n = 28). This evidence concerns the gene IL18 and systemic sclerosis.
