Identification of Th1-polarized Th17 cells: solving the problem
Helper T cells producing IL-17 (Th17) have high plasticity: restimulation of lymphocytes in an inflammatory environment can induce their transformation into cells with another phenotype, and a shift towards Th1 is the most common.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung cancer are global high incidence and high mortality diseases, which seriously increase the socio-economic burden. Smoke exposure, genetic susceptibility and chronic inflammation are common susceptible

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by increased proliferation of epidermal cells, impaired keratinization and an inflammatory reaction in dermis caused by activation of T lymphocytes and synthesis of pro-inflammatory cytokines.

IL-6 controls susceptibility to helminth infection by impeding Th2 responsiveness and altering the Treg phenotype in vivo [PDF]
IL-6 plays a pivotal role in favoring T-cell commitment toward a Th17 cell rather than Treg-cell phenotype, as established through in vitro model systems.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a highly detrimental autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. There is no cure for it but the treatment typically focuses on subsiding severity and recurrence of the disease.

Th17 and Th17/Treg ratio at early HIV infection associate with protective HIV-specific CD8+ T-cell responses and disease progression [PDF]
The aim of this study was to analyze Th17 and Treg subsets and their correlation with anti-HIV T-cell responses and clinical parameters during (acute/early) primary HIV infection (PHI) and up to one year post-infection (p.i).

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.

Th17 cells are implicated in the pathogenesis of several autoimmune diseases. During the inflammation, Th17 cells exposed to IL-12 can shift towards the Th1 phenotype. These shifted cells are defined as ‘non-classic Th1 cells’.

MicroRNAs regulate T-cell production of interleukin-9 and identify hypoxia-inducible factor-2a as an important regulator of T helper 9 and regularoty T-cell differentiation [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate many aspects of helper T cell (Th) development and function. Here we found that they are required for the suppression of interleukin‐9 (IL‐9) expression in Th9 cells and other Th subsets. Two highly related miRNAs (miR‐15b and

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.
