CCR2⁺CD103⁻ intestinal dendritic cells develop from DC-committed precursors and induce interleukin-17 production by T cells [PDF]
The identification of intestinal macrophages (m phi s) and dendritic cells (DCs) is a matter of intense debate. Although CD103(+) mononuclear phagocytes (MPs) appear to be genuine DCs, the nature and origins of CD103(-) MPs remain controversial.

The Role of Interleukin-17 in Lung Cancer [PDF]
Tumour-associated inflammation is a hallmark of malignant carcinomas, and lung cancer is a typical inflammation-associated carcinoma. Interleukin-17 (IL-17) is an important inflammatory cytokine that plays an important role in chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases and in inflammation-associated tumours.

γδ T Cell Selection: Is Anyone Useless? [PDF]
In this issue of Immunity, a study by Jensen et al. (2008) suggests that T cell-receptor engagement during development affects γδ T cell polarization toward either interferon-γ or interleukin-17 production. This might underlie their unique innate ability

Is interleukin-17 implicated in early knee osteoarthritis pathogenesis as in rheumatoid arthritis?
Background Interleukin-17 (IL-17) is a cytokine that promotes activation of multiple catabolic pathways resulting in cartilage and tissue damage. It has features making it increasingly attractive as a biological marker, especially in rheumatoid arthritis

Interleukin-17 in human inflammatory diseases [PDF]
Human Th17 pro-inflammatory cells are currently defined as cells that produce IL-17A and F, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, IL-6, IL-21, IL-22 and IL-23. Recently discovered related molecules are forming a family of cytokines, the IL-17 family, IL-17A, IL-17B, IL-17C, IL-17D, IL-17E and IL-17F.
