Abstract

Currently, the search and study of new biological markers that can provide early diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases, serve as a laboratory tool for assessing the effectiveness of treatment, or be used as prognostic markers and risk stratification criteria is ongoing. Our literature review indicates the potentially important diagnostic and prognostic value of assessing members of the interleukin-6 family. It is expected that further scientific and clinical studies will demonstrate the possibility of using members of the interleukin-6 family as an additional laboratory tool for the diagnosis, risk stratification and prediction of cardiovascular events in cardiac patients. It is necessary to evaluate in detail the possibilities of blockade of these interleukin-6 molecules in patients with cardiovascular diseases in vitro and in vivo.
