The IL‐17 Cytokine Family

2006
IL-17A and its receptor are the founding members of a recently described cytokine family, with unique sequences and functions in the immune system and elsewhere. Consisting of six ligands (IL-17A-F) and five receptors (IL-17RA-IL-17RE) in mammals, these molecules have distinct primary amino acid structures with only minimal homology to other cytokine ...

IL-17/IL-17 receptor system in autoimmune disease: mechanisms and therapeutic potential

Clinical Science, 2012
IL-17 (interleukin-17), a hallmark cytokine of Th17 (T-helper 17) cells, plays critical roles in host defence against bacterial and fungal infections, as well as in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. The present review focuses on current knowledge of the regulation, functional mechanisms and targeting strategies of IL-17 in the context of ...

The role of IL-17 and IL-17 receptor inhibitors in the management of generalized pustular psoriasis

Drugs of Today, 2019
Generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is a severe psoriasis form that can be refractory to several systemic treatments. The role of interleukin (IL)-17/ T-helper 17 (Th17) axis inhibitors in the therapy of GPP is not fully established. The objective of this paper is to summarize the existing information on the efficacy and safety of secukinumab ...

The Impact of IL-17 in Atherosclerosis

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2017
Atherosclerosis is a chronic vascular disease in which atherosclerotic plaques develop in the arterial wall. It is believed that inflammation plays a major role in atherosclerotic formation and progression. Thus, atherosclerosis can be considered as an inflammatory disease of the arterial vessel.

IL-17 inhibitors for moderate-to-severe psoriasis

Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery, 2018
The role of the Th17/interleukin (IL)-23 pathway has been well elucidated in psoriasis. The IL-17 family includes 6 cytokines: IL-17A, IL-17B, IL-17C, IL-17D, IL-17E, and IL-17F. Two monoclonal antibodies targeting IL-17A (secukinumab, ixekizumab) and one antibody against the IL-17 receptor (brodalumab) have been approved for the treatment of moderate ...

Role of IL-17 and IL-17 Family Cytokines on Tumor Development

2012
Anticancer immune responses restrain tumor progression, but persistent immune activation can induce chronic inflammation that contributes to tumor development. The IL-17 family of cytokines comprises six family members (IL-17A to IL-17F) that all contribute to tissue inflammation.

IL-17 and intestinal tumorigenesis

Drug Discovery Today: Disease Mechanisms, 2011
IL-17 is an important proinflammatory cytokine in autoimmune diseases. The constant presence of IL-17 in the intestinal tract raises the possibility that it may be a critical enhancer of intestinal tumorigenesis. Yet the role of IL-17 in cancer development is controversial.
