Propionibacterium acnes Promotes Th17 and Th17/Th1 Responses in Acne Patients [PDF]
Propionibacterium acnes is a Gram-positive commensal bacterium thought to be involved in the pathogenesis of acne vulgaris. Although the ability of P. acnes in the initiation of pro-inflammatory responses is well documented, little is known about adaptive immune responses to this bacterium.

Th17 cytokines and arthritis [PDF]
Th17 cells are implicated in human autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), although it has not been established whether this persistent destructive arthritis is driven by Th1 and/or Th17 cells. Interleukin-17A (IL-17A) contributes to the pathogenesis of arthritis as has been shown in several experimental arthritis models.

Th17 profile in COPD exacerbations [PDF]
COPD is characterized by an ongoing inflammatory process of the airways that leads to obstruction or limitation of airflow. It is mainly associated with exposure to cigarette smoke. In addition, it is considered, at present, a serious public health problem, ranking fourth in mortality worldwide.

Differential regulation of interleukin-17 and interferon-y production in inflammatory bowel disease [PDF]
PhDBackground and Aims. Interleukin (IL)-17 is now known to be involved in a number of chronic inflammatory disorders. However, the mechanisms regulating its production in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are still unclear. Methods.

T<sub>H</sub>17-Associated Polyamine Metabolism-Guided Nanozyme Promotes Alveolar Bone Repair in Periodontitis. [PDF]
A pronounced TH17‐skewed immune response is identified in experimental periodontitis, and enrichment of the polyamine pathway is observed during TH17 differentiation, suggesting its potential as an immunometabolic target. Inspired by these findings, DFMO@Ui‐Mn is developed as a therapeutic platform combining cascade ROS scavenging with immunometabolic ...

The parasitic helminth product ES-62 suppresses pathogenesis in collagen-induced arthritis by targeting the interleukin-17–producing cellular network at multiple sites [PDF]
Among many survival strategies, parasitic worms secrete molecules to modulate host immune responses. One such product, ES-62, is protective in the collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) model of rheumatoid arthritis.

Human Th17 cells: Are they different from murine Th17 cells? [PDF]
AbstractType 17 Th (Th17) cells have been identified as a distinct population of CD4+ effector T cells different from Th1 and Th2 cells. While the pre‐eminent cytokine of Th1 cells is IFN‐γ and that of Th2 cells is IL‐4, the distinctive cytokine of Th17 cells is IL‐17A.

Expression of the RUNX family in skin lesions from patients with psoriasis vulgaris
Objective To explore the expression and distribution of runt-related transcription factor (RUNX) family in lesions of psoriasis vulgaris (PV), and analyze the correlation between its levels and markers of proliferation, apoptosis and immunity.

The identification of novel helper T (Th) cell subsets, i.e., IL-17-producing Th cells (Th17 cells) and regulatory T cells (Treg cells), provided new insight into our understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in the development of infectious and autoimmune diseases as well as immune responses, and thus led to revision of the classic Th1/Th2 ...

The Endogenous Th17 Response in NO
Severe, glucocorticoid-resistant asthma comprises 5-7% of patients with asthma. IL-17 is a biomarker of severe asthma, and the adoptive transfer of Th17 cells in mice is sufficient to induce glucocorticoid-resistant allergic airway disease.
