    What is Interleukin 6 (IL6) Test?

    The Interleukin-6 (IL-6) test is a blood test that measures the amount of interleukin-6, a special protein in your body. This protein, called IL-6, helps your body fight infections, control swelling (inflammation), and heal injuries. It is made by different types of cells, such as T-cells, macrophages, blood vessel cells, and fat cells. While IL-6 is helpful for your body’s defence, too much of it can cause problems like too much swelling or damage to healthy tissues.

    Doctors may ask for this test if you have serious infections like sepsis or COVID-19, diseases that affect your immune system like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus, or long-lasting health problems like psoriasis or ankylosing spondylitis. It is also useful for people who have certain types of cancer, such as multiple myeloma, or are receiving special treatments like CAR-T therapy or antibody medicines, where a condition called cytokine release syndrome (CRS) might occur. This test also helps doctors see how well treatments are working for people taking IL-6-blocking medicines. High levels of IL-6 may mean your body is dealing with serious inflammation, disease activity, or trouble recovering.

    If you live in Noida and want to check for inflammation or learn about your immune health, you can book an IL-6 test from home.

    Interleukin 6 (IL6) Test Parameters

    The IL-6 test evaluates a single parameter: the concentration of interleukin-6 present in the bloodstream.

    Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a specific protein that plays a key role in managing inflammation and controlling immune system processes. It is synthesized by various cells such as T and B lymphocytes, macrophages, liver cells, and fibroblasts. IL-6 contributes to the body’s ability to combat infections by stimulating the liver to create acute-phase proteins and enhancing the activity of B cells, which are critical for generating antibodies.

    IL-6 binds to particular receptors on cells to deliver signals that coordinate immune responses effectively. Although IL-6 is essential for fighting infections and promoting recovery, excessive levels may result in ongoing inflammation. Elevated IL-6 values could indicate infections, persistent inflammation, autoimmune disorders, or even progression of certain cancers.

    Interleukin 6 (IL6) Test Preparation

    Getting ready for an Interleukin-6 (IL-6) test at home is simple by following these guidelines:

    • Prerequisites : There is no need to fast before undergoing the IL-6 test.

    • Best Time to Get Tested : The IL-6 test can be scheduled for any time during the day that fits your schedule.

    • Who Should Get an IL 6 (Interleukin 6) Test : This test is recommended for individuals experiencing persistent inflammation, immune-related disorders, or severe infections. It is useful for tracking conditions like lupus, infections, and specific cancers.

    • Cautions Before Taking an IL 6 (Interleukin 6) Test : Make sure to inform your doctor about any medicines you are taking or any recent illnesses, as these can influence the results of the test.

    Why Take the Interleukin 6 (IL6) Test?

    The IL-6 test measures inflammation in the body and detects disruptions in immune system function. It plays a vital role in diagnosing and observing various health conditions:

    ● Severe Inflammation or Infection Suspicion: When systemic inflammation, infection, or sepsis is suspected, the IL-6 test determines severity and guides medical interventions.

    ● Flare-Ups in Autoimmune Diseases: For patients managing conditions like lupus or rheumatoid arthritis, during a flare-up, this test evaluates the extent of inflammation.

    ● Monitoring Health Conditions or Therapy Response: In individuals undergoing treatments for inflammatory or autoimmune conditions, the IL-6 test helps track therapy outcomes and disease activity.

    ● Supporting Treatment Decisions: Helps doctors adjust and modify treatment plans for conditions related to inflammation and immune health.

    • I recently used Orange Health as a recommendation from a friend. I was in desperate need to get my family tested and to my surprise I was able to book a home collection test within 45 minutes. With any lab it easily takes more than half a day to book an appointment. I booked at 7:30 am for an 8:15 am slot and the person was right on time. The results were out by mid day. The Orange Health app is super user friendly and I have already recommended them to all my friends.
