Highlights • The mechanisms underlying acute stress-induced IL-6 responses are poorly understood.• We assessed the effects of beta-blockade with propranolol in a double-blind study.• Beta-blockade reduced IL-6 responses to stress in men but not women.• Blood pressure and heart rate responses was not affected by propranolol.• The study provides partial support for SNS involvement in stress-induced inflammation.
