IL-8 is a chemotactic cytokine like other( LT b4 ..etc ) which attracts neutrophils ,hence can be used a biomarker for many conditions causing inflammation ..like Covid -19 for bacterial superinfection , post burn injury ,etc . Some new researches quotes it as novel biomarker for bladder cancer .hope it resolves your query.
