abstract：:Interleukin-8 (IL-8), a neutrophil-activating cytokine, also activates certain T cell functions such as chemotaxis. We additionally find (n = 6) that recombinant (rIL-8; 1-100 ng/ml), when added to 24 h culture of human CD4+ T cells, suppressed the spontaneous production of IL-4 (50-85%). Steady state production of Il...
