Abstract

FIRST ISOLATED IN 1990, interleukin-11 (IL-11) has proven to be a fascinating cytokine with pleiotropic effects on multiple tissues. Initially characterized as a hematopoietic cytokine with thrombopoietic activity, IL-11 has now been shown to be expressed and have activity in multiple other tissues
