Interleukin 10 but not interleukin 4 is a natural suppressant of cutaneous inflammatory responses
We have examined the role of endogenously produced interleukin (IL) 4 and IL-10 in the regulation of inflammatory and immune reactions in the skin. In these experiments, irritant and contact hypersensitivity (CH) responses were elicited in mice with targeted disruptions of the IL-4 (IL-4T) or IL-10 (IL-10T) gene. Our study showed that IL-4T and wild-type (wt) mice exhibited equivalent responses...
متن کاملInterleukin-8 but Not Interleukin-6 Variant May Affect Susceptibility to Brucellosis
Background: Increased levels of interleukin-8 (IL-8) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in acute human brucellosis have been reported. Previous studies have shown that the production and level of IL-6 and IL-8 cytokines are associated with the polymorphism of the encoding genes. Objective: To investigate the probable association between IL-6 (-174 C/G) and IL-8 (-251 A/T) gene polymorphisms and susceptib...
متن کاملInterleukin-4 but not gamma interferon production correlates with the severity of murine cutaneous leishmaniasis.
For murine cutaneous leishmaniasis, data to date suggest a correlation between the presence of gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) and resistance in C57BL/6 mice and the presence of interleukin-4 (IL-4) and disease in BALB/c mice. In this study, 13 inbred strains of mice covering the range of susceptibility to disease were infected with Leishmania major to determine whether the subsequent expression o...
متن کاملRegulation of the Anti-Inflammatory Cytokines Interleukin-4 and Interleukin-10 during Pregnancy
Inflammation mediated by both innate and adaptive immune cells is necessary for several important processes during pregnancy. Pro-inflammatory immune cell activation plays a critical role in embryo implantation, placentation, and parturition; however dysregulation of these cells can lead to detrimental pregnancy outcomes including spontaneous abortion, fetal growth restriction, maternal patholo...
متن کاملInterleukin-10 is a proliferation factor but not a differentiation factor for human myeloma cells.
Because interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a potent differentiation factor of human B cells into mature plasma cells, we investigated its effect on human malignant plasma cells. IL-10 did not induce any differentiation and increase in Ig synthesis in four human IL-6-dependent malignant plasma cell lines. However, it stimulated the proliferation of two of four cytokine-dependent cell lines in the absence...
