Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. An important task in cardiology is the search and study of new biomarkers. Scientific interest is actively focused on the study of interleukin-11 (IL-11). The purpose of the literature review was to analyze experimental and clinical studies devoted to the study of IL-11 as a diagnostic and prognostic marker in CVD. Material and methods. The article provides an overview of current publications. An analysis of literature sources was carried out, including all relevant publications in the databases PubMed, RSCI, MedLine, Google Scholar, Science Direct. Results. In endothelial cells, IL-11 primarily promotes angiogenesis, thereby exerting a beneficial effect on coronary heart disease. IL-11 also promotes vascular remodeling by inducing smooth muscle cell transformation and fibroblast activation. IL-11 may be involved in the onset and progression of pulmonary hypertension through the JAK/STAT3 pathway and aortic dissection processes through the non-classical ERK pathway. Conclusion. The presented literature review indicates the potentially important diagnostic and prognostic value of IL-11 assessment. Regulating the concentration and expression of IL-11 may be a promising strategy for the treatment of CVD.
