IL-10 (Interleukin 10)

Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a protein produced by immune cells that plays a key role in regulating inflammation and preventing excessive immune responses. It acts as a moderator, ensuring the immune system fights infections effectively without causing too much damage to the body's own tissues. By reducing the production of certain inflammatory molecules, IL-10 helps to control inflammation and promote healing. It is important in maintaining immune balance, protecting against autoimmune diseases, and controlling chronic inflammatory conditions.
