Induction of serum interleukin (IL)-10 in IL-6−/− mice injected with recombinant interleukin-6 (rIL-6) at various time-points following UV exposure. There was no induction of serum IL-10 in IL-6−/− mice after UV exposure, although IL-10 was dramatically induced by UV irradiation of IL-6+/+ mice. Injection of rIL-6 significantly induced serum IL-10 levels at 24, 48 and 72 hr following UV exposure in IL-6−/− mice. The data represent mean±SD for four mice. *Indicates a significant difference (P <0·05) from IL-6−/− mice.
