Interleukin‐17 and its target genes: mechanisms of interleukin‐17 function in disease [PDF]
Immunology, 2010 SummaryInterleukin‐17 (IL‐17) has emerged as a central player in the mammalian immune system. Although this cytokine exerts a host‐defensive role in many infectious diseases, it promotes inflammatory pathology in autoimmunity and other settings. A myriad of studies have focused on how IL‐17‐producing cells are generated.
