IL-6 is a pleiotropic cytokine that is produced in many types of cells upon inflammatory insult [1]. IL-6 functions as a warning signal in the event of infection and tissue damage, therefore has been considered to be a reliable inflammatory marker. Yamamoto and colleagues generated bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC)-based hIL6<\/i>-luciferase transgenic mice to evaluate inflammatory status in vivo<\/i> (i.e., WIM-6 mouse; Whole-body in vivo<\/i> monitoring using human IL6<\/i>-luciferase transgenic mice) [2]. In the LPS-induced sepsis model, LPS dose- and time-dependent luciferase induction was detected by whole-body monitoring and in vitro<\/i> luciferase assay using bone marrow-derived macrophages. In experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), WIM-6 mice exhibited robust induction of luciferase luminescence in brain and spinal cord. WIM-6 system also monitored therapeutic efficacy of anti-inflammatory reagents in atopic dermatitis model. Overall, our results demonstrate that WIM-6 mouse system serves as a useful tool for in vivo<\/i> monitoring of inflammation in various disease models.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
