All were females and didn’t have received any chemo/or radiological treatment .also 20 sample of apparently healthy women were involved as a control. The blood samples (5ml) were drown from all of the studied cases in order to be used for measuring their serum level of (IL-6) by using Enzyme –Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) . Result: Serum (IL-6) level were increased with high significant difference in Breast cancer patients and showed significant correlation in all disease stages as compared to control group with the highest level in stage I patients group.
