Sorafenib 246-255 interleukin 6 Homo sapiens 21-25 29100435-4 2017 IL-6 could attenuate the anti-proliferation effect by sorafenib and combination therapy but facilitate the pro-apoptosis of the combination therapy and augment the pro-invasive effect induced by single treatment. Sorafenib 54-63 interleukin 6 Homo sapiens 0-4 29100435-5 2017 IL-6 could down-regulate p-STAT3, however up-regulate the p-MEK/p-ERK and NF-kB/iNOS expression, and it also facilitated the promotion on p-JAK2 and p-MEK/p-ERK by either sorafenib or IFN-alpha. Sorafenib 171-180 interleukin 6 Homo sapiens 0-4 29100435-9 2017 Sorafenib and combination therapies are suitable for HCC cells with low or no IL-6 expression confirmed in vivo study. Sorafenib 0-9 interleukin 6 Homo sapiens 78-82
