[Evaluation of IL-6 level in serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)].
To study the relationship between the interleukin-6(IL-6) level in serum and broncheoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) and non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). ⋯ IL-6 in BALF might be used as a marker for NSCLC. Serum IL-6 level might be an indicator for the stage of NSCLC. The serum IL-6 can also reflect the severity of acute lung inflammatory response.
