Anti-Inflammatory Effect of Interleukin-10 in Rabbit Immune Complex-Induced Colitis

Background: Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is an anti-inflammatory cytokine that downregulates the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines and additionally induces the secretion of anti-inflammatory cytokines, thus possibly leading to reduction of chronic inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease. In this...

Zusammenfassung:Background: Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is an anti-inflammatory cytokine that downregulates the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines and additionally induces the secretion of anti-inflammatory cytokines, thus possibly leading to reduction of chronic inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease. In this study we evaluated the anti-inflammatory effect of IL-10 in a model of acute colitis in rabbits. Methods
