IL6 and non-small cell lung carcinoma: Results: It was elucidated that EGFR-TKI resistance upregulated the M2 polarization biomarkers, Arg-1 (PC9-GR: P < 0.01; HCC827-GR: P < 0.05) and IL4 (PC9-GR: P < 0.01; HCC827-GR: P < 0.01), while downregulated the M1 polarization biomarkers, TNF-α (PC9-GR: P < 0.01; HCC827-GR: P < 0.01), IL1β (PC9-GR: P < 0.01; HCC827-GR: P < 0.01), and IL6(PC9-GR: P < 0.001; HCC827-GR: P < 0.001) in NSCLC cell lines.
