Interleukin-15 (IL-15) induces IL-8 and monocyte chemotactic protein 1 production in human monocytes.
Interleukin-15 (IL-15) is a recently characterized cytokine that shares many biological activities with IL-2 and interacts with the beta and gamma components of the IL-2 receptor. Unlike IL-2, which is secreted only by T cells, IL-15 is expressed preferentially by nonlymphoid tissues, epithelial, and fibroblast cell lines and by activated monocytes/macrophages. High concentrations of IL-15 have...
متن کاملIL-10 expression profiling in human monocytes.
Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a potent anti-inflammatory cytokine with numerous immunomodulatory effects, including the inhibition of proinflammatory cytokine production. The mechanisms by which IL-10 exerts these effects still remain largely unknown. As there is evidence that suggests IL-10-mediated cytokine suppression requires the induction of an intermediate gene, we have used gene-chip technol...
متن کاملContrasting effects of IL-4, IL-10 and corticosteroids on RANTES production by human monocytes.
RANTES is a chemokine produced in delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) and allergic reactions, in which it may contribute to the recruitment of immune cells. Macrophages participate in the cellular infiltration in both conditions and they represent a potent source of RANTES. To understand the regulation of RANTES production by human monocytes, we analyzed the effect of cytokines and of corticost...
متن کاملRole of interleukin-23 (IL-23) receptor signaling for IL-17 responses in human Lyme disease.
Interleukin-23 (IL-23) is known to play a crucial role in the development and maintenance of T helper 17 cells. It has been previously demonstrated that IL-17 is involved in experimental Lyme arthritis, caused by Borrelia burgdorferi bacteria. However, the precise role of the IL-23 receptor (IL-23R) for the B. burgdorferi-induced IL-17 responses or human Lyme disease has not yet been elucidated...
متن کاملSalmonella Induced IL-23 and IL-1β Allow for IL-12 Production by Monocytes and Mϕ1 through Induction of IFN-γ in CD56+ NK/NK-Like T Cells
BACKGROUND The type-1 cytokine pathway plays a pivotal role in immunity against intracellular bacterial pathogens such as Salmonellae and Mycobacteria. Bacterial stimulation of pattern recognition receptors on monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells initiates this pathway, and results in the production of cytokines that activate lymphocytes to produce interferon (IFN)-gamma. Interleukin (IL)...
