"Furthermore, considering that the levels of systemic inflammation biomarkers significantly decreased among good responders in our study, it is notable that methotrexate alone or in combination with sulfasalazine reduces circulating levels of IL-6 [XREF_BIBR], and hydroxychloroquine inhibits IL-6, IL-17 and IL-22 production from PBMC [XREF_BIBR]."

"This dichotomous effect (inhibition of CD4 T-cell stimulation and promotion of CD8 T-cell stimulation), which still needs to be demonstrated with chronic antimalarial use, may explain in part the paucity of opportunistic infections during antimalarial therapy.In vitro studies have shown that both chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine decrease the production of TNF-α , IL-6, and IFN-γ by mitogen-stimulated peripheral blood lymphocytes (38)."

"HCQ has also been implicated in the reduction of other anti-inflammatory cytokines ; in vitro studies have shown that HCQ can reduce the production of IL-1 , IL-6 , TNF , INFgamma by mononuclear cells , and reduce TNF , INF , IL-6 , and CCL4 in plasmacytoid dendritic cells ( pDC , an immune cell type linked to viral defense ) and natural killer cell co-cultures ( Wallace et al ., 1993 ; Wallace et al ., 1994 ) ."

"In two clinical trials conducted in the 1990s, Sperber et al. reported suppressive effects on immune activation (measured at that time as IL-6 production) and viral load in individuals treated with 800mg of hydroxychloroquine and day (bioequivalent to 500mg/day of chloroquine) [XREF_BIBR, XREF_BIBR]."
