Abstract

Human interleukin-10 (IL-10) inhibits T-cell proliferation and cytokine production in the presence of monocytes. In this study, we have investigated whether IL-10 can directly inhibit T cells. Highly purified peripheral blood T cells containing less than 0.1% CD14+ cells and unresponsive to phytohemagglutinin (PHA), were growth-inhibited by IL-10 when stimulated with immobilized OKT3 monoclonal antibody (MoAb; 55.4% inhibition). This effect was neutralized by the murine MoAb 19F1 directed against human IL-10. In addition, IL-10 inhibited by 52.5% the proliferation of a human tetanus toxoid-specific T-cell clone (TM11) induced by immobilized OKT3 MoAb in the absence of antigen-presenting function. T-cell growth inhibition by IL-10 did not reflect a cytokine- induced change in the kinetics of T-cell response to immobilized OKT3 MoAb, and was observed over a wide range of cell and OKT3 MoAb concentrations. Addition of 1% to 5% monocytes to highly purified peripheral blood T cells resulted in the emergence of proliferation to PHA and to soluble OKT3 MoAb, but did not significantly affect levels of growth inhibition by IL-10 in the presence of immobilized OKT3 MoAb. Similarly, addition of 10% monocytes to the TM11 T-cell clone resulted in the emergence of proliferation in response to tetanus toxoid, but did not significantly influence growth inhibition by IL-10 in the presence of immobilized OKT3 MoAb. When stimulated with immobilized OKT3 MoAb in the absence of accessory cells, T cells secreted IL-2. Secretion of IL-2 under these conditions was inhibited by IL-10 (51.5% inhibition). Thus, IL-10 can directly inhibit growth and IL-2 production in T cells triggered by immobilized OKT3 MoAb in the absence of monocytes.

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.
