Abstrakt | IL-10 is an anti-inflammatory cytokine that has recently been shown to promote survival of neurons and glia. Here we establish that IL-10 induces phosphorylation of Stat3 on Tyr(705) and serves as a survival factor for N13 microglial cells. Recombinant IL-10 (10 ng/ml) decreases growth factor withdrawal-induced apoptosis by 50%, as assessed by TUNEL. In contrast to IL-10, IGF-I increases enzymatic activity of PI 3-kinase and causes phosphorylation on serine(473) of Akt but does not prevent microglial apoptosis. These data establish that IL-10 activates Stat3 and inhibits the mitochondrial pathway of cell death without activating the Akt cell survival pathway. | |
