[We found that (1) exogenous rIL-10 and rIL-4 mediated reduction of constitutive and lectin-induced IL-6 in monocytes of SLE patients as effectively as that of controls; (2) IL-6 mRNA decay was significantly delayed in SLE with active disease (P < 0.001); (3) adding rIL-10 or neutralizing endogenous IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha down-regulated IL-6 mainly by destabilizing IL-6 transcripts, whereas exogenous IL-4 and TGF beta 1 down-regulated IL-6 transcriptionally; (4) time kinetics and levels of IL-10 were lower than those of IL-6 and IL-1 beta.].
