Evaluation of In Vitro Production of IFN-γ, IL-10, IL-12 and IL-13 by Blood Cells in Patients with Cutaneous Leishmaniasis Lesions

This study investigated the in vitro production of interferon-γ, interleukin (IL)-10, IL-12, and IL-13, after antigenic stimulation of the cells (with Leishmania antigen and lipopolysaccharide) using whole blood from patients with cutaneous leishmaniasis lesions caused by Leishmania tropica and in v...

description This study investigated the in vitro production of interferon-γ, interleukin (IL)-10, IL-12, and IL-13, after antigenic stimulation of the cells (with Leishmania antigen and lipopolysaccharide) using whole blood from patients with cutaneous leishmaniasis lesions caused by Leishmania tropica and in volunteers with history of cutaneous leishmaniasis. ELISA results showed that the mean production of interferon-γ by cells of whole blood in patients with lesions in response to Leishmania antigen was significantly lower than corresponding values in volunteers with history of cutaneous leishmaniasis (P< 0.05) and significantly higher levels of IL-10 production in patients with lesions were observed compared with cured volunteers of the disease (P
