Serum concentration of recombinant human (rh) IL-6 after intraperitoneal (IP) instillation of peritoneal dialysate fluid containing rh IL-6. Immediately after sham operation (Sham) or ischemic AKI (AKI), 2 mL of peritoneal dialysis (PD) fluid containing vehicle (veh) (1% BSA) or 200 ng rh IL-6 was instilled peritoneally; 15 minutes later, dialysate and serum were collected for rh IL-6 measurement. Serum rh IL-6 was increased in Sham and AKI receiving dialysate fluid with rh IL-6 (Sham + PD + IL6, AKI + PD + IL6, respectively), and absent in Sham and AKI + vehicle (Sham + PD + veh, AKI + PD + veh, respectively) (Sham + PD + IL6 versus AKI + PD + IL6, P=NS, n=5).
