The role of interleukin-17 in epilepsy
Epilepsy Research, 2022Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder that seriously affects human health. It is a chronic central nervous system dysfunction caused by abnormal discharges of neurons. About 50 million patients worldwide are affected by epilepsy. Although epileptic symptoms of most patients are controllable, some patients with refractory epilepsy have no response ...

Interleukin-17 in Inflammatory Myopathies
Current Rheumatology Reports, 2012Since the identification of interleukin (IL)-17 as a T-cell-derived cytokine 15 years ago, the contribution of the T-helper type 17 (Th17) pathway in inducing and maintaining chronic inflammation has been well-established, particularly in rheumatoid arthritis. In addition to the main Th1 profile first suggested to contribute to inflammatory myopathies,

Interleukin-17 as a key player in neuroimmunometabolism
Nature Metabolism, 2023In mammals, interleukin (IL)-17 cytokines are produced by innate and adaptive lymphocytes. However, the IL-17 family has widespread expression throughout evolution, dating as far back as cnidaria, molluscs and worms, which predate lymphocytes. The evolutionary conservation of IL-17 suggests that it is involved in innate defence strategies, but also ...

Interleukin-17 and the interleukin-17 family member network.
Allergy and asthma proceedings, 2004Interleukin-17 (now known as IL-17A), is a homodimer of two 155 amino acid chains secreted by CD4+ activated memory T cells (CD45+ RO+) and is available as a glycosylated 20- to 30-kDa homodimeric peptide. Human IL-17 shows amino acid sequence identity of 62.5 and 58% to the mouse and rat sequences, respectively.

Interleukin-17 and fat: Timing is everything
ImmunityInterleukin-17 plays a major role in controlling adipose tissue homeostasis. In a recent study published in Nature, Douglas et al. demonstrate that time-of-day-dependent expression of interleukin-17 by tissue-resident innate lymphocytes in the adipose tissue drives circadian regulation of adipose tissue homeostasis and function.

Regulation of Interleukin-17 Production
2016Innate immunity represents the first line of host defense against extracellular infections. Timely initiation of inflammatory responses to invading pathogens confers host the ability to prevent, restrict, and eliminate microorganisms and further trigger adaptive immunity to provide extended eradication of the pathogens as well as long-term protection ...

Current Protocols in Immunology, 2001
AbstractThis unit describes two procedures for measurement of interleukin‐17 (IL‐17). IL‐17 is a pleiotropic proinflammatory cytokine that binds to its ubiquitously expressed receptor, IL‐17R, resulting in the induction of several other cytokines including IL‐6 and IL‐8.

Interleukin-17 and airway remodelling
Pulmonary Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 2006Interleukin (IL)-17A is emerging as important in reinforcing innate immunity by orchestrating sustained neutrophilic mobilisation. Even though there are indications of association with specific airway diseases, there is still no final proof that IL-17A plays a truly causative pathogenic role. There is evidence in mice that endogenous IL-17A contributes

Interleukin-17: a mediator of inflammatory responses
Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences CMLS, 2004Interleukin-17 (IL-17) is a prototype member of a new cytokine family with six species identified to date. IL-17 is secreted mainly by activated CD4(+) and CD8(+) T lymphocytes, while its receptor is distributed ubiquitously. IL-17 has been classified as a proinflammatory cytokine because of its ability to induce the expression of many mediators of ...

Interleukin-17 Antagonists in the Treatment of Psoriasis
Journal of Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery, 2015Background Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated inflammatory skin disorder of unknown etiology. Interleukin (IL)-17a, a key product of the recently identified Th17 cell subset, has been found to play a critical role in the immunopathogenesis of psoriasis.
