Summary
PMID 20154735
IL10 expression is regulated in different immune cells has revealed some of the molecular mechanisms involved at the levels of signal transduction, epigenetics, transcription factor binding and gene activation.
PMID 20435894
IL10 is a potent anti-inflammatory cytokine that is crucial for down-regulating pro-inflammatory genes which are induced by Toll-like Receptor (TLR) signalling. It also plays a role in microRNA function, specifically its inhibitory effect on miR-155 expression in response to LPS.
PMID 20883317
IL10 is a pleiotropic cytokine released in many tissues that mediates anti-inflammatory effects. IL10 also has an immunomodulatory role by stimulating NKG2D ligand expression on macrophages, thereby rendering them susceptible to natural killer (NK) cell elimination.
PMID 21849677
IL10 contributes to antiviral innate immunity during acute infection by restricting activation-induced death in natural killer (NK) cells. Blockade of Il10 receptor during acute murine cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection markedly reduced the accumulation of cytotoxic NK cells in the spleen and lung. (Demonstrated in murine model)
PMID 22268692
IL10 has opposing functions in anti-microbial responses in its capacity to mediate protective immunity against some organisms but increase susceptibility to other infections.
PMID 22876184
IL10-mediated suppression of natural killer/dendritic cell crosstalk leads to prolonged mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV) persistence due to poor priming of MCMV-specific T cells. (Demonstrated in mouse)
PMID 23071313
IL10 induces MIR187 to limit the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
PMID 23980205
MIR145 directly targets HDAC11 to promote IL10 expression in TLR4-triggered macrophages.
PMID 24265436
HIV-1 infection of macrophages modulates host responses to co-infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis by attenuating IL10 responses thus contributing to the pathogenesis of tuberculosis in HIV-1â??infected patients.
PMID 25005359
Secreted CCNA2 (CCN1) promotes anti-inflammatory cytokine IL10 release from epithelial cells via integrin αVβ6-PKC, and this subsequently suppresses TNF, CXCL2 and neutrophil infiltration in the lungs.
PMID 26535690
MIR29A inhibits IL10-induced cytokine release by targeting JAK-STAT3 in monocytes during sepsis.

Summary

[Mus musculus] Il10-mediated suppression of natural killer/dendritic cell crosstalk leads to prolonged mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV) persistence due to poor priming of MCMV-specific T cells.
PMID 25826367
[Mus musculus] Retinoic acid treatment enhances Tlr2-dependent Il10 production from T cells and this, in turn, potentiates T regulatory cell generation without the need for activation of antigen presenting cells.
PMID 25959063
[Mus musculus] Intestinal macrophages that constitutively produce IL10, control excessive innate immune activation and prevent tissue damage after an acute bacterial infection.
Entrez Gene
Summary The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine produced primarily by monocytes and to a lesser extent by lymphocytes. This cytokine has pleiotropic effects in immunoregulation and inflammation. It down-regulates the expression of Th1 cytokines, MHC class II Ags, and costimulatory molecules on macrophages. It also enhances B cell survival, proliferation, and antibody production. This cytokine can block NF-kappa B activity, and is involved in the regulation of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway. Knockout studies in mice suggested the function of this cytokine as an essential immunoregulator in the intestinal tract. Mutations in this gene are associated with an increased susceptibility to HIV-1 infection and rheumatoid arthritis.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011]
