To determine the effect of interleukin 4 (IL-4) administration in a live sepsis model characterised by high-level production of tumour necrosis factor a (TNF-alpha), mice infected systemically with lethal or sublethal inocula of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were given the recombinant cytokine at different times before infection. Improved survival and decreased TNF-alpha production were observed in lethally infected mice treated with the cytokine 1 day before challenge. In contrast, increased mortality and overproduction of TNF-alpha were observed in sublethally infected mice given IL-4 at the time of infection.
