BACKGROUND: Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and its associated sequelae, post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS), are significant health care problems in the United States. It is estimated that a maximum of 60% of patients diagnosed with DVT develop PTS, which is characterized by extensive perivenous and mural fibrosis. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) has been linked to fibrosis, and high circulating plasma levels have been found to increase the risk of developing DVT. The aim of this study was to elucidate the role of IL-6 in the progression of vein wall fibrosis by using a mouse model of DVT.
METHODS AND RESULTS: C57BL/6 mice (n = 136) were treated with either anti-IL-6 monoclonal antibody or control rat-immunoglobulin G. Thrombus was induced by using an inferior vena cava ligation model. The inferior vena cava and thrombus were harvested at days 2, 6, or 14 for thrombus weight, gene expression of IL-6 and/or C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2), inflammatory cell recruitment, and morphometric analysis of vein wall fibrosis. Mice treated with anti-IL-6 had smaller thrombus weights at day 2, decreased vein wall gene expression and protein concentration of CCL2 at day 2, and impaired vein wall influx of monocytes from days 2 to 6, as compared with controls. Intimal thickness was reduced by 44% (p < 0.05) and vein wall collagen deposition was decreased by 30% at day 14 in the anti-IL-6 group (p < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: Neutralizing IL-6 throughout venous thrombogenesis decreased the production of CCL2, reduced monocyte recruitment, and decreased vein wall intimal thickness and fibrosis. These results suggest that IL-6 may serve as a therapeutic target to prevent the fibrotic complications seen in PTS.
