Immunology. 2005 Mar;114(3):428-37. Furthermore, while animals injected with mercury alone exhibited a significant decrease in the ratio of the levels of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) to interleukin-4 (IL-4) mRNA in their spleens, this ratio was increased in mice with CIA, with or without administration of mercury. |

Heavy metal salts were added to lymphocyte cultures, and lymphocyte proliferation and levels of IL-2 receptors and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) were determined. After addition of mercuric chloride, a statistically significant increase of IFN-gamma was seen in the patient group, indicating a higher reactivity to this metal salt. |

10886398 | Szeto C, Gillespie KM, Mathieson PW: Levamisole induces interleukin-18 and shifts type 1/type 2 cytokine balance. Immunology. 2000 Jun;100(2):217-24. Immune responses can be classified, according to the predominant cytokines involved, into type 1 (featuring interferon-gamma, IFN-gamma) and type 2 (featuring interleukin-4, IL-4); imbalance between type 1 and type 2 cytokine compartments has been implicated in many human diseases. Further, the type 2 response induced in BN rats by mercuric chloride was markedly attenuated when rats were pretreated with levamisole: there was a 2-log reduction in maximum serum IgE level and marked attenuation of IL-4 gene upregulation. |

19203382 | Inman RD, Chiu B: Heavy metal exposure reverses genetic resistance to Chlamydia-induced arthritis. Arthritis Res Ther. 2009;11(1):R19. Epub 2009 Feb 9. In the present study, we examine an environmental toxin, mercuric chloride (HgCl2), as a modulator of this innate resistance to arthritis. The local cytokine profile in the joint was markedly altered after mercury exposure, with a suppression of tumour necrosis factor-alpha and interferon-gamma but an enhancement of vascular endothelial growth factor. |

Toxicology. 2005 Jan 15;206(2):257-72. We used this prototype "Cell Chip" to test, by means of flow cytometry, the immunomodulatory potential of 13 substances and were able to detect changes in cytokine expression in 12 cases (successful for cyclosporine, rapamycin, pentamidine, thalidomide, bis (tri-n-butyltin) oxide, house dust mite allergen (Der p I), 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene, tolylene 2,4-diisocyanate, tetrachloroplatinate, and mercuric chloride; unsuccessful for penicillin G). The T-cell lymphoma cell line EL-4 was transfected with the regulatory sequences of interleukin (IL)-2, IL-4, IL-10, interferon (IFN)-gamma or actin fused to the gene for enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) in either a stabile or a destabilised form. |

Clin Exp Immunol. 1996 Nov;106(2):280-5. OX8 treatment also exacerbated the early rise in HgCl2-induced IgE and induced a significant rise in plasma interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), suggesting that CD8+ cells may have a regulatory influence on Th cell populations. |

The monoclonal antibody OX22 defines a functional split within CD4+ T cells in the rat, with OX22high cells mainly producing interleukin 2 (IL-2) and interferon gamma and responsible for delayed-type hypersensitivity responses, and OX22low cells mainly producing IL-4 and -5 and responsible for providing B cell help. We have used OX22 in vivo to define the role of these subsets in mercuric chloride-induced autoimmunity in the Brown Norway rat. |

Cells primarily secreting interleukin-2 (IL-2) and interferon-gamma are known as Th1 cells and mediate classical cell-mediated immune responses such as delayed-type hypersensitivity. Study of an animal model of Th2-driven autoimmunity (mercuric chloride-induced autoimmunity in Brown Norway rats) has yielded insights into a possible role for oxidant stress in the generation of Th-2 driven autoimmune responses. |

Clin Exp Immunol. 2000 Jul;121(1):17-22. In susceptible rat strains, mercuric chloride (HgCl2) induces activation of Th2 cells, with enhanced expression of IL-4, polyclonal B cell activation and very high levels of circulating IgE. We have previously shown that spontaneous regulation of this response coincides with enhanced expression of Th1/type-1 cytokines, including interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and IL-12. |
