| Core Tip |
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Previous studies have demonstrated that interleukin (IL)-6 is a critical tumor promoter during early CRC tumorigenesis. However, there have been few studies regarding the expression of IL-6 and its prognostic role in CRC. Therefore, we explored the correlation between the expression of IL-6 and the clinicopathological features in CRC. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first analysis of the expression of IL-6 in resected CRC samples using immunohistochemistry combined with biostatistics. The results showed that the expression of IL-6 was correlated with tumour TNM stage and histological differentiation. Furthermore, IL-6 in tumour cells showed stronger immunoreactivity as tumour cells invaded deeply. These data indicated that IL-6 might be used as a potential therapeutic target in patients with CRC.
