ELISA was performed based on the protocol described previously10 (link). Immunol 2HB-microtiter plates were coated with mouse anti IL-10 (R&D Systems) or mouse anti-IL12 (BD Biosciences) followed by blocking with 2% BSA-PBS for 2 hr. Culture supernatants or diluted sera were added after washing and incubated overnight at 4 °C. Secondary Ab labeled with biotin were added to plates, and incubated for 2 hr. Next plates were developed by phosphatase-conjugated streptavidin (AKP) followed by the addition of p-nitrophenyl phosphatase (pNPP) substrate (Southern Biotech). Optical density was measured using a SpectraMax M5 microplate Reader and SoftMax Pro Acquisition and Analysis software (Molecular Devices).
