Serum Levels of Il-12 and Il-23 in Breast Cancer Patients Infected with Toxoplasma gondii: A Case-Control Study

open access: yesIranian Journal of Parasitology, 2020
Background: The possible risk factor of Toxoplasma infection and its possible correlation with Interleukin-12 (IL-12) and Interleukin-23 (IL-23) in breast cancer patients was investigated. Methods: Overall, 190 female patients referred to the Oncology

The IL23R R381Q gene variant protects against immune-mediated diseases by impairing IL-23-induced Th17 effector response in humans

open access: yes, 2011
IL-23 and Th17 cells are key players in tissue immunosurveillance and are implicated in human immune-mediated diseases. Genome-wide association studies have shown that the IL23R R381Q gene variant protects against psoriasis, Crohn's disease and ...

Prevention of arthritis by interleukin 10-producing B cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In this study we have shown that activation of arthritogenic splenocytes with antigen and agonistic anti-CD40 gives raise to a B cell population that produce high levels of interleukin (IL)-10 and low levels of interferon (IFN)-{gamma}. Transfer of these

Th17 Lymphocytes in Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infection

open access: yesViruses, 2013
Infection by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) affects approximately 33 million infants annually worldwide and is a major cause of hospitalizations. Helper T lymphocytes (Th) play a central role in the immune response during such infections.

IL-23 Inhibition in Ankylosing Spondylitis: Where Did It Go Wrong?

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Axial spondyloarthritis is a prevalent form of chronic arthritis which is related to psoriatic arthritis and skin psoriasis. TNF and IL-17A as well as IL-17F are key cytokines contributing to the pathobiology of this disease, as evidence by the ...

Interleukin-23: A central cytokine in the pathogenesis of spondylarthritis [PDF]

open access: yesArthritis & Rheumatism, 2011
One of the most satisfying aspects of the genome-wide association studies conducted in patients withankylosing spondylitis (AS) has been the large numberof genes that have been shown to affect susceptibility todisease (1). The first gene of this kind to be identifiedwas the interleukin-23 receptor (IL-23R).

Early production of IL-22 but not IL-17 by peripheral blood mononuclear cells exposed to live Borrelia burgdorferi: the role of monocytes and interleukin-1

open access: yes, 2010
If insufficiently treated, Lyme borreliosis can evolve into an inflammatory disorder affecting skin, joints, and the CNS. Early innate immunity may determine host responses targeting infection. Thus, we sought to characterize the immediate cytokine storm

Current perspective on the role of the interleukin-23/interleukin-17 axis in inflammation and disease (chronic arthritis and psoriasis) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
TH17 is a lymphocyte subset, which is characterized by its polarization to secrete interleukin (IL)-17. IL-23 is the pivotal mediator responsible for TH17 differentiation and the IL-23/IL-17 axis has been strongly implicated in the pathogenesis of ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

IL-23 contributes to control of chronic Helicobacter pylori infection and the development of T helper responses in a mouse model

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2012
The immune response to Helicobacter pylori involves a mixed T helper-1, T helper-2, and T helper-17 response. It has been suggested that T helper cells contribute to the gastric inflammatory response during infection, and that T helper 1 (Th1) and T ...
