INTERLEUKIN-10 DOSE-DEPENDENT REGULATION OF CD4+ AND CD8+ T CELL-MEDIATED GRAFT-VERSUS-HOST DISEASE1
1 Nov 1998
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Endogenous interleukin (IL)-10 production has been associated with the lack of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in human recipients of MHC-disparate donor grafts. Paradoxically, we have shown that the exogenous administration of high doses (30 microg/dose) of IL-10 to murine recipients of MHC-disparate grafts accelerates GVHD lethality. METHODS: The effects of IL-10 on GVHD mediated by either CD4+ or...
