The effect of systemic administration of anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-4 and IL-10) on the development and maintenance of an anti-tumor rejection response in vivo was studied by following the growth patterns of P815.B7 tumors on B6D2F1 [(C57BI/6 x DBA/2)F1] mice. The anti-P815.B7 rejection response was found to be T cell dependent, involving both CD4 and CD8 cells. IL-4 treatment resulted in ...

Interleukin-10 (IL-10) initiates potent anti-inflammatory effects via activating its cell surface receptor, composed of IL-10R1 and IL-10R2 subunits. The level of IL-10R1 is a major determinant of the cells' responsiveness to IL-10. Here, via a series of biochemical analyses using 293T cells reconstituted with IL-10R1, we identify the latter as a novel substrate of βTrCP-containing ubiquitin E3...
