Role of interleukin-10 in monocyte hyporesponsiveness associated with septic shock

Abstract: Monocytes from patients with septic shock exhibit persistent IL-10 release at a time when TNF-alpha release is downregulated. The continued release of IL-10 may contribute to impairment of monocyte proinflammatory cytokine release and the development of immune dysfunction in septic shock.

“…The association of an anti-inflammatory profile with an unfavourable outcome has previously been described in febrile adults with community acquired infections [5]. An anti-inflammatory phenotype is recognised as a hallmark of the "immune paralysis" described in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock [14,15] and more recently a lower basal TNF-α/IL-10 ratio has been demonstrated in patients with septic shock [16]. Our results are consistent with this.…”

“…These results suggest that IL-10 might be more important than TGF-β in the pathophysiology of sepsis-induced immunoparalysis. This is in accordance with experimental data showing that blocking IL-10 is more efficient than blocking TGF-β in reversing endotoxin tolerance (59,61,62).…”

“…They observed that high IL-10 levels were associated with mortality after severe sepsis and, importantly, with stress-induced hyperglycemia, whereas TNF-α, IL-6, and TGF-β concentrations did not have any predictive value. Given the properties of IL-10 in suppressing the synthesis of numerous proinflammatory cytokines (59), its continued release may contribute to the immune dysfunctions observed after septic shock and thus may augment susceptibility to secondary microbial invasion (58)(59)(60).…”

“…1, C and D). Although the down-regulation of proinflammatory cytokines like TNF-␣, IL-1, and IL-6 and the up-regulation of IL-10 has been reported by several earlier studies on tolerized human monocytes and murine macrophages (3,4,22,24,49), the up-regulation of the TRIF-specific gene IFN-␤ in endotoxin-tolerized cells was unexpected.…”

“…The involvement of NF-B and AP-1 in regulating LPS tolerance has been reported in the human monocytic cell line THP-1 (23). It is believed that tolerized monocytes/macrophages overexpress anti-inflammatory cytokines like IL-10 and TGF-␤, which can contribute to the suppression of proinflammatory cytokine expression in these cells (24,25). Finally, changes in the levels of negative regulators of the TLR pathway like MKP1, FLN29, ST2, and IRAK-M are also thought to contribute toward tolerance (26 -29), although the mechanism of their induction and their regulation are still poorly defined.…”
