It is extensively considered that the pro-inflammatory cytokines (such as tumor necrosis factor α, interleukin [IL]-6, and IL-1) and anti-inflammatory cytokines (such as epidermal growth factor and transforming growth factor beta) play a causative role in the carcinogenesis of PCa [30,31,32,33,34,35]. Here, IL6 is linked to posterior cortical atrophy.
