Interleukin-10 Inhibits Spontaneous Sleep in Rabbits

Abstract

Proinflammatory cytokines, including interleukin-1beta(IL-1beta) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) are involved in sleep regulation. IL-10 is an anti-inflammatory cytokine that inhibits proinflammatory cytokine production. We hypothesized that IL-10 could attenuate sleep. Thirty-one male rabbits were used. Three doses of IL-10 (5 ng, 50 ng, and 250 ng) were injected intracerebroventricularly during the rest (light) period. One dose of IL-10 (250 ng) was injected during the active (dark) cycle. Appropriate time-matched control injections of saline were given to the same rabbits on different days. The two highest doses of IL-10 significantly inhibited spontaneous nonrapid eye movement sleep if IL-10 was given during the light cycle. The highest dose of IL-10 (250 ng) also significantly decreased rapid eye movement sleep. IL-10 administered at dark onset had no effect on sleep. The sleep inhibitory properties of IL-10 provide additional evidence for the hypothesis that a brain cytokine network is involved in regulation of physiologic sleep.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
