Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is one of the major circulating cytokines in catabolic states. To investigate its endocrinologic and metabolic actions in vivo, we studied eight patients with metastatic renal cell cancer two times, once during infusion of saline (control) and once during a 4-h infusion of 150 micrograms recombinant human IL-6 (rhIL-6). Rates of appearance (Ra) of glucose and free fatty acids (FFA) in plasma were measured by using the isotope dilution method. Energy expenditure and substrate oxidation were determined by indirect calorimetry. rhIL-6 induced increases in plasma norepinephrine (+261 +/- 97%, P |
