Type:
Interleukin-8 (IL-8), also known as CXCL8, is a chemokine primarily involved in the recruitment and activation of neutrophils. Its role in cancer is significant, as it can influence tumor growth, metastasis, and the tumor microenvironment.
IL-8 is a chemokine frequently produced in the tumor microenvironment by human malignant cells. IL-8 plays key roles in the immunobiology of human malignancies and resistance to treatments. Circulating IL-8 concentration reflects tumor burden.

In many cancers have elevated levels of IL-8 and are associated with increased tumor aggressiveness, metastasis, and poorer overall survival. Elevated IL-8 often correlates with a more inflammatory tumor microenvironment, which can facilitate tumor progression.

Ischemic stroke is also called brain ischemia and cerebral ischemia. Ischemia is the medical term for "lack of blood supply."
