Elevated Th17 cell proportion, related cytokines and mRNA expression level in patients with hypertension-mediated organ damage: a case control study

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2022
Background Immune abnormalities and inflammatory responses play critical roles in progression of hypertension. Basic studies have confirmed that Th17 cell and related cytokines are important in promoting hypertension-mediated organ damage, but few ...

Cutting Edge: Interleukin 17 Signals through a Heteromeric Receptor Complex [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2006
AbstractIL-17 is an inflammatory cytokine produced primarily by a unique lineage of CD4 T cells that plays critical roles in the pathogenesis of multiple autoimmune diseases. IL-17RA is a ubiquitously expressed receptor that is essential for IL-17 biologic activity.

Signaling via interleukin-4, receptor alpha chain is required for successful vaccination against schistosomiasis in BALB/c mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Radiation-attenuated (RA) schistosome larvae are potent stimulators of innate immune responses at the skin site of exposure (pinna) that are likely to be important factors in the development of Th1-mediated protective immunity.

MicroRNA-146a limits tumorigenic inflammation in colorectal cancer

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Activation of interleukin-17 (IL-17) receptor signaling within intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) promotes colorectal cancer development. Here, the authors show that miR-146a limits inflammation-induced colorectal carcinogenesis by inhibiting both IL-17 ...

Identification of Crustacean Female Sex Hormone Receptor Involved in Sexual Differentiation of a Hermaphroditic Shrimp

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2023
The neurohormone crustacean female sex hormone (CFSH) contains a highly conserved interleukin-17 (IL-17) domain in the mature peptide. Although CFSH has been demonstrated to stimulate female sexual differentiation in crustaceans, its receptors (CFSHR ...

miR-34a is a microRNA safeguard for Citrobacter-induced inflammatory colon oncogenesis

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Inflammation often induces regeneration to repair the tissue damage. However, chronic inflammation can transform temporary hyperplasia into a fertile ground for tumorigenesis.

Yin and yang of interleukin-17 in host immunity to infection [version 1; referees: 2 approved] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The interleukin-17 (IL-17) family cytokines, such as IL-17A and IL-17F, play important protective roles in host immune response to a variety of infections such as bacterial, fungal, parasitic, and viral.
