Cytokines are important mediators of the pathogenesis of lung fibrosis. The experimental studies carried out in our laboratory have used a murine model of lung
silicosis
to explore the activity of interleukin-9, -10 and -12. The data presented in this short overview illustrate the pro-fibrotic activity of anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10), and the role of type 2 immune polarisation, as illustrated by the paradoxical effect of IL-9 and the activity of IL-12
