IL-9 is a Th2 cytokine that exerts pleiotropic activities on T cells, B cells, mast cells, hematopoietic progenitors, and lung epithelial cells, but no effect of this cytokine has been reported so far on mononuclear phagocytes. Human blood monocytes preincubated with IL-9 for 24 h before LPS or PMA stimulation exhibited a decreased oxidative burst, even in the presence of IFN-{gamma}. The inhibitory effect of IL-9 was specifically abolished by anti-hIL-9R mAb, and the presence of IL-9 receptors was demonstrated on human blood monocytes by FACS. IL-9 also down-regulated TNF-{alpha} and IL-10 release by LPS-stimulated monocytes. In addition, IL-9 strongly up-regulated the production of TGF-{beta}1 by LPS-stimulated monocytes. The suppressive effect of IL-9 on the respiratory burst and TNF-{alpha} production in LPS-stimulated monocytes was significantly inhibited by anti-TGF-{beta}1, but not by anti-IL-10R{beta} mAb. Furthermore, IL-9 inhibited LPS-induced activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 mitogen-activated protein kinases in monocytes through a TGF-{beta}-mediated induction of protein phosphatase activity. In contrast, IL-4, which exerts a similar inhibitory effect on the oxidative burst and TNF-{alpha} release by monocytes, acts primarily through a down-regulation of LPS receptors. Thus, IL-9 deactivates LPS-stimulated blood mononuclear phagocytes, and the mechanism of inhibition involves the potentiation of TGF-{beta}1 production and extracellular signal-regulated kinase inhibition. These findings highlight a new target cell for IL-9 and may account for the beneficial activity of IL-9 in animal models of exaggerated inflammatory response.
