Protective role of interleukin-10 in atherosclerosis.
The potential role of anti-inflammatory cytokines in the modulation of the atherosclerotic process remains unknown. Interleukin (IL)-10 has potent deactivating properties in macrophages and T cells and modulates many cellular processes that may interfere with the development and stability of the atherosclerotic plaque. IL-10 is expressed in human atherosclerosis and is associated with decreased...
متن کاملProtective Role of Interleukin-10 in Ozone-Induced Pulmonary Inflammation
BACKGROUND The mechanisms underlying ozone (O₃)-induced pulmonary inflammation remain unclear. Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is an anti-inflammatory cytokine that is known to inhibit inflammatory mediators. OBJECTIVES We investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying interleuken-10 (IL-10)-mediated attenuation of O₃-induced pulmonary inflammation in mice. METHODS Il10-deficient (Il10(-/-)) and w...
متن کاملProtective role of imatinib in atherosclerosis.
The “metabolic syndrome,” also known as the insulin resistance syndrome or syndrome X, provides an effective framework for investigating the increased cardiovascular risk factors and adverse events related to atherosclerosis.1–3 Metabolic syndrome includes obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and impaired glucose tolerance. An increasing body of evidence in both human and mouse studies now sugg...
متن کاملThe Role of IL-10 in Atherosclerosis
Cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery disease (CAD), ischemic gangrene, abdominal aortic aneurysms, and many cases of heart failure and stroke currently account for the most number of deaths in the Western world (Hansson et al., 2006). The root cause of these diseases is atherosclerosis, which is widely accepted these days to be a chronic inflammatory disease in addition to the mor...
متن کاملRole of interleukin 10 in specific immunotherapy.
The induction of allergen-specific anergy in peripheral T cells represents a key step in specific immunotherapy (SIT). Here we demonstrate that the anergic state results from increased IL-10 production. In bee venom (BV)-SIT the specific proliferative and cytokine responses against the main allergen, the phospholipase A2 (PLA), and T cell epitope-containing PLA peptides were significantly suppr...
