Cyclosporin A does not Inhibit IL‐lα‐Induced Epithelial Cell IL‐6 Secretion
Trauma and infection activated a murine mucosal IL‐6 response in different ways: the IL‐6 response to bacteria was sensitive to Cyclosporin A (CsA); the IL‐6 response to trauma was not. The aim of the present study was to identify possible activators of the CsA‐insensitive IL‐6 secretion at the epithelial cell level. Two human epithelial cell lines from the kidney (A498) and bladder (J82) were exp
