Direct activation of oestrogen receptor- α by interleukin-6 in primary cultures of breast cancer epithelial cells

Interleukin 6 (IL-6) is secreted by breast tumours and shows synergistic activity with 17β-oestradiol (E2), leading to increases in reductive 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity in breast cancer epithelial cells.
