title: Expression and production of interleukin 10 in human myeloma cell lines.
abstract: Recent investigations of the cytokine network surrounding myeloma cells have disclosed the importance of gp130-related cytokines including interleukin (IL)-6 for myeloma cell survival and proliferation, identification of IL-10 as a growth factor for myeloma cells, the close relationship between IL-10 and the receptors for gp130-related cytokines, and the growth enhancement effect of IL-11 and IL-7 on myeloma cells. In this study, IL-10 production was observed in three out of seven human myeloma cell lines examined and five (including three producing lines) out of 10 lines exhibited mRNA expression of IL-10. The IL-10 mRNA expression was also enhanced in approximately one third of primary specimens, whereas the IL-10 receptor (R) expression was not changed compared with that of normal component marrow controls. However, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay of various cytokines and their receptors showed no particular association with IL-10-producing myeloma lines compared with non-producing lines. Supplementing exogenous IL-10 or neutralization of the IL-10 signal by anti-IL-10 monoclonal antibody (mAb) in a culture conditions did not significantly affect myeloma cell growth regardless of expression of IL-10 or its receptor (IL-10R). However, supplement of anti-IL-10 mAb caused upregulation of certain genes such as IL-11, leukaemia inhibitory factor receptor (LIFR) and syndecan-1 in IL-10R-expressing cell lines. These findings indicate that the cytokine network surrounding myeloma cells is complicated and variable. In addition, IL-10 may modify this network and the cellular biological properties of myeloma cells rather than cell proliferation.
