Interleukin (IL)-10 is elevated in the autoimmune disease systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Here we show that conventional dendritic cells (cDCs) from pre-disease lupus-prone B6.NZM Sle1/Sle2/Sle3 triple congenic (TCSle) mice produce more IL-10 than wild type congenic cDCs upon TLR stimulation, and this overproduction is prevented by blocking the type I IFN receptor (IFNAR) with specific antibodies. Priming wild type cDCs with type I IFN mimics the IL-10 overproduction of TCSle cDCs. The MAP kinase ERK is more phosphorylated in lupus cDCs, partially contributing to IL-10 overproduction. Moreover, we found that TCSle cDCs express higher levels of IL-27 upon TLR7/TLR9 stimulation, and IFNAR blockade reduced IL-27 levels in TCSle cDCs. These results suggest that dysregulated type I IFNs in cDCs contribute to the increased IL-10 and IL-27 in SLE. Since IL-27 neutralization did not inhibit TLR-induced IL-10 production, we propose that type I IFNs enhanced IL-10 in TCSle cDCs independently from IL-27. Moreover, RNA sequencing analysis of a cohort of SLE patients reveals higher gene expression of these cytokines in SLE patients expressing a high IFN signature. Since IL-27 and IL-10 have both pro- and anti-inflammatory effects, our results also suggest that these cytokines can be modulated by the therapeutic IFN blockade in trials in SLE patients and have complex effects on the autoimmune response. Model of a type I IFN - IL-27 / IL-10 molecular network augmented in murine lupus cDCs. Murine lupus cDCs overproduce IL-10 and IL-27 due to heightened autocrine I-IFN Signature. Furthermore, elevated IL-10 and IL-27 correlate with high IFN Signature in SLE patients.
