Interleukin-10 is in the class [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokine cytokine].<ref>PMID:16982608</ref>  Interleukin-10 is a very powerful anti-inflammatory cytokine that is most commonly found to be produce by moncytes <ref>PMID:15772682</ref>. IL-10 has the ability to be a immunosupressive as well as a anti-angiogenic this means that it has tha ability both promot and inhibit tumors<ref>PMID:16122836</ref>.

IL-10 is investigated for its role in patients with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rheumatoid_Arthritis Rheumatoid Arthritis] (RA) as well as those with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osteoarthritis Osteoarthritis] (OA)<ref>PMID:8163935</ref>.
