Interleukin‐17 regulates matrix metalloproteinase activity in human pulmonary tuberculosis [PDF]
Tuberculosis (TB) is characterized by extensive pulmonary matrix breakdown. Interleukin‐17 (IL‐17) is key in host defence in TB but its role in TB‐driven tissue damage is unknown.

Interleukin-17 governs hypoxic adaptation of injured epithelium
Mammalian cells autonomously activate hypoxia-inducible transcription factors (HIFs) to ensure survival in low-oxygen environments. We report here that injury-induced hypoxia is insufficient to trigger HIF1α in damaged epithelium.

Interleukin-17: A Social Cytokine [PDF]
Some children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) show behavioral improvements when experiencing inflammation accompanied by fever; however, little is known about the mechanisms that underlie these beneficial effects. In a recent issue of Nature, Reed and colleagues demonstrate that the production of interleukin-17 (IL-17) during inflammation promotes ...

Interleukin-17 Family Cytokines in Metabolic Disorders and Cancer
Interleukin-17 (IL-17) family cytokines are potent drivers of inflammatory responses. Although IL-17 was originally identified as a cytokine that induces protective effects against bacterial and fungal infections, IL-17 can also promote chronic ...

Interleukin-17 Cytokines and Receptors: Potential Amplifiers of Tendon Inflammation
Interleukin (IL)-17A, a pro-inflammatory cytokine that is linked to the pathology of several inflammatory diseases, has been shown to be upregulated in early human tendinopathy and to mediate inflammatory and tissue remodelling events.

Interleukin‐17—A multifaceted cytokine in viral infections
Viral infections are a major threat to the human population due to the lack of selective therapeutic measures. The morbidity and mortality reported worldwide are very alarming against viral pathogens. The proinflammatory environment is required for viral

Interleukin-17: A Revisited Study [PDF]
Cytokine is a term used for a large group of proteins that are produced by a variety of cells in the body and act to stimulate, or inhibit, the functions of the same cells that produce them or of other cell types. The IL-17 family members are different in expressions and proinflammatory responses.
