The abilities of pentoxifylline and recombinant interleukin-10 (rIL-10) to inhibit tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) production in RAW264.7 murine macrophages were compared. Pentoxifylline consistently inhibited the accumulation of both TNF and iNOS in a dose-dependent manner whether the stimulus was bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), recombinant interferon-γ (rIFN-γ), or LPS plus rIFN-γ. Similarly, rIL-10 consistently reduced TNF production by cells stimulated with LPS, rIFN-γ, or LPS plus rIFN-γ. However, rIL-10 weakly inhibited LPS-induced iNOS production but failed to block (and often augmented) rIFN-γ-induced iNOS production. Combinations of pentoxifylline and rIL-10 led to additive or synergistic inhibition of TNF but not iNOS production; in fact, rIL-10 appeared to interfere with the ability of pentoxifylline to block iNOS accumulation. These data suggest that combinations of antiinflammatory agents may have unanticipated effects on inflammatory mediator production.
