IL-10, a negative regulator of TNFα production. Human lung tissue (n = 37) was pre-treated with neutralising IL-10 antibody (nIL-10Ab) (grey circles) or an isotype control (open circles) for 1 hr and then stimulated with 100 ng/ml LPS (filled circles). The supernatants were analysed for (A) TNFα, (B) IL-6, and (C) CXCL8 using commercially available ELISAs. Values given are the mean ± SEM and are expressed as pg/mg of tissue, * indicates a P value < 0.05.
