Abstract
Studies about in vivo IL-10 immunoregulation demonstrated that CD4+ cells from Schistosoma mansoni infected mice produced large amounts of IL-10 and that this response was temporally and mechanistically linked to the downregulation of the Th1 cytokine response (A Sher et al. 1991 J Immunol 147: 2713-2716). The addition of neutralizing anti IL-10 mAb to the cultures resulted in an increase in IFN-g production to levels approaching those seen before the egg laying phase (EJ Pearce & A Sher 1991
