ED₅₀ = 0.2-1 ng/ml as measured in a cell proliferation assay using a mouse mast cell line, MC/9.

General description

Recombinant, human interleukin-10 expressed in S. frugiperda insect cells. Pleiotropic cytokine that can exert either immunosuppressive or immunostimulatory effects on a variety of cell types. Potent modulator of monocyte/macrophage function. Exhibits anti-inflammatory effects by suppressing macrophage proliferation. Human IL-10 has cross-species reactivity and is active in mouse cell lines.

Potent modulator of monocyte/macrophage function. Exhibits anti-inflammatory effects by suppressing macrophage proliferation. Blocks lipopolysaccharide induction of MMP-2 and MMP-9. Known to reduce neuronal degeneration following CNS injury by blocking glutamate-induced caspase-3 activation. Human IL-10 is also active on murine cell lines.
