# Interleukin-10, Serum

> This test measures the level of Interleukin-10, a protein that helps control inflammation and calm the immune system. It helps show how well your body regulates immune responses, which is useful when investigating chronic inflammation or autoimmune conditions. Doctors use these results to help distinguish between different types of immune system disorders or to monitor specific inflammatory diseases. However, this test cannot identify the specific cause of inflammation or diagnose a condition on its own.
