摘要

Previous studies comparing interleukin 4 receptor α (IL-4Rα)-/- and interleukin 4 (IL-4)-/- BALB/c mice have indicated that interleukin 13 (IL-13), whose receptor shares the IL-4Rα subunit with IL-4, plays a protective role during visceral leishmaniasis. We demonstrate that IL-13-/- BALB/c mice were less able to control hepatic growth of Leishmania donovani compared with wild-type mice. This correlated with significantly retarded granuloma maturation in IL-13-/- mice, defective interferon γ (IFN-γ) production, and elevated IL-4 and interleukin 10 (IL-10) levels. L. donovani–infected IL-13-/- mice also responded poorly to sodium stibogluconate-mediated chemotherapy compared with wild-type BALB/c mice. Because murine lymphocytes do not have IL-13 receptors, we examined the ability of macrophageeutrophil-specific IL-4Rα-/- mice to control primary infection with L. donovani and to respond to chemotherapy. Macrophageeutrophil-specific IL-4Rα-/- mice were as resistant to leishmaniasis as wild-type mice, and chemotherapy retained its efficacy. Consequently, in L. donovani infected BALB/c mice, IL-13 promotes hepatic granuloma formation and controls parasite burdens independently of direct effects on macrophageseutrophils.
