Moderate inhibitory effect of interleukin-10 on human neutrophil and monocyte chemotaxis in vitro.
Neutrophils and monocytes are the major classes of phagocytes that migrate from the blood stream and accumulate in inflamed tissues in response to various chemoattractants. Because IL-10 is a potent anti-inflammatory cytokine, we analyzed its in vitro effect on chemotaxis using an under agarose method. We found that, as compared to prednisolone, IL-10 alone was a modest inhibitor of C5a, fMLP and IL-8-induced neutrophil chemotaxis, and C5a-induced monocyte chemotaxis. However, GM-CSF pretreatment of the cells potentiated this inhibitory effect. Similarly, the IL-10 induced modulation of the beta2 integrin CD11b/CD18 adhesion molecule expression was only observed on GM-CSF-preactivated neutrophils and monocytes. Taken together, these results suggest that the migration and accumulation of phagocytes at infection sites would not be significantly affected by IL-10 given as an immunomodulatory therapy.
