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.

A rush to judgment on Th17 [PDF]
Some immunologists have characterized T helper (Th)17 T cells as the master mediators of tissue damage in a variety of pathological conditions. New data now demonstrate that Th1 and Th17 T cells are independently capable of inducing disease in two established models of autoimmunity.

Effects of glycodelin on CCR6+ cell subpopulations of Th17-polarized helper T cells
Glycodelins, the glycosylated proteins of reproductive tract are characterized by immunomodulatory functions, are of interest because of their role in the development of immune tolerance.

IRAK4 Kinase Activity Is Required for Th17 Differentiation and Th17-Mediated Disease [PDF]
Abstract Both IL-23- and IL-1-mediated signaling pathways play important roles in Th17 cell differentiation, cytokine production, and autoimmune diseases. The IL-1R-associated kinase 4 (IRAK4) is critical for IL-1/TLR signaling. We show here that inactivation of IRAK4 kinase in mice (IRAK4 KI) results in significant resistance to ...

Th17/Treg Imbalance and Atherosclerosis [PDF]
Atherosclerosis is nowadays recognized as a chronic inflammatory disease of large arteries. In recent years, cellular and molecular biology studies on atherosclerosis confirmed that the occurrence and development are related to inflammation and autoimmunity.
