IL10 and kidney failure: Recently, using IL-10 reporter (Vert-X) mice and albumin-specific IL-10-/- mice, it was also shown that non-hematopoietic cells, such as hepatocytes, constitute an important source of IL-10 during the chronic stage of experimental T. congolense infection required for controlling the development of immunopathologies, including liver injury, kidney failure and severe chronic anaemia (48).
