Changes in Bone Metabolism and Structure in Primary Hyperparathyroidism
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is a key regulator of bone turnover. Depending on the duration of action, the hormone causes catabolic and anabolic effects by binding with specific receptors (PTHR1) in the bone.

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.

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.

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 ...

The role of the novel Th17 cytokine IL-26 in intestinal inflammation [PDF]
Background and aims: Interleukin 26 (IL-26), a novel IL-10-like cytokine without a murine homologue, is expressed in T helper 1 (Th1) and Th17 cells. Currently, its function in human disease is completely unknown. The aim of this study was to analyse its

After more than 20 years of hegemony, the Th1-Th2 paradigm was recently shaken by the discovery of a novel population of CD4 effector T cells, the Th17 cells. Th17 effector cells produce IL-17 and IL-22 and thus have pro-inflammatory properties notably favoring neutrophils recruitment and thus control of extracellular bacteria mainly at the epithelium ...
