Yin and yang of interleukin-17 in host immunity to infection [version 1; referees: 2 approved] [PDF]
The interleukin-17 (IL-17) family cytokines, such as IL-17A and IL-17F, play important protective roles in host immune response to a variety of infections such as bacterial, fungal, parasitic, and viral.

Features of peripheral blood Treg and Th17 subsets during physiological pregnancy [PDF]
Aim: Regulatory T (Treg) cells and interleukin-17-producing T helper (Th17) cells play a critical role in successful pregnancy. Treg and Th17 cells differentiate predominantly in the thymus.

Erythropoietin inhibits SGK1-dependent Th17 cell induction and Th17 cell–dependent kidney disease [PDF]
IL-17-producing CD4+ cells (TH17) are pathogenically linked to autoimmunity including to autoimmune kidney disease. Erythropoietin's (EPO) newly recognized immunoregulatory functions and its predominant intra-renal source suggested that EPO physiologically regulates TH17 differentiation, thereby serving as a barrier to the development of autoimmune ...
