Concomitant Expression of IL-6 and TGF-β Cytokines and their Receptors in Peripheral Blood of Patients with Multiple Sclerosis: The Effects of INFβ Drugs [PDF]
Background: Concomitant signals from IL-6 and TGF-β have a central role in the Th17 cells development and differentiation, and these cells are the main promoters of demyelinating inflammation in the central nervous system (CNS) resulting in multiple ...

The RNA-binding protein HuR contributes to neuroinflammation by promoting C-C chemokine receptor 6 (CCR6) expression on Th17 cells. [PDF]
In both multiple sclerosis and experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), the C-C chemokine receptor 6 (CCR6) is critical for pathogenic T helper 17 (Th17) cell migration to the central nervous system (CNS).

T Helper Cells: The Modulators of Inflammation in Multiple Sclerosis [PDF]
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease characterized by the progressive loss of axonal myelin in several areas of the central nervous system (CNS) that is responsible for clinical symptoms such as muscle spasms, optic neuritis ...

The Function and Role of the Th17/Treg Cell Balance in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic, inflammatory, and autoimmune disorder. The pathogenesis of IBD is not yet clear. Studies have shown that the imbalance between T helper 17 (Th17) and regulatory T (Treg) cells, which differentiate from CD4 ...

Systemic levels of IL-23 are strongly associated with disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis but not spondyloarthritis [PDF]
Objectives Th17 cells are an effector T-cell population that plays a role in chronic inflammatory conditions and is dependent on IL-23 for their survival and expansion. More recently, a genetic association was discovered between polymorphisms in the gene
