Th17 cells in human disease [PDF]
Summary:Our understanding of the role of T cells in human disease is undergoing revision as a result of the discovery of T‐helper 17 (Th17) cells, a unique CD4+T‐cell subset characterized by production of interleukin‐17 (IL‐17). IL‐17 is a highly inflammatory cytokine with robust effects on stromal cells in many tissues.

At the turn of the century, researchers discovered a unique subtype of T helper cells that secretes IL-17 and defined it as Th17. The latest study found that Th17 cells play both positive and negative definitive roles in the regulation of antitumor ...

More stories on Th17 cells [PDF]
For more than two decades, immunologists have been using the so-called Th1/Th2 paradigm to explain most of the phenomena related to adaptive immunity. The Th1/Th2 paradigm implied the existence of two different, mutually regulated, CD4(+) T helper subsets: Th1 cells, driving cell-mediated immune responses involved in tissue damage and fighting ...

RBPJ Controls Development of Pathogenic Th17 Cells by Regulating IL-23 Receptor Expression
Interleukin-17 (IL-17)-producing helper T cells (Th17 cells) play an important role in autoimmune diseases. However, not all Th17 cells induce tissue inflammation or autoimmunity. Th17 cells require IL-23 receptor (IL-23R) signaling to become pathogenic.

Autoreactive effector CD4+ T cells have been associated with the pathogenesis of autoimmune disorders. Early studies implicated the interferon (IFN)‐γ‐producing T helper (Th)1 subset of CD4+ cells as the causal agents in the pathogenesis of autoimmunity. However, further studies have suggested a more complex story. In models thought to be driven by Th1

Th17 Cells in Immunity and Autoimmunity [PDF]
Th17 and IL-17 play important roles in the clearance of extracellular bacterial and fungal infections. However, strong evidence also implicates the Th17 lineage in several autoimmune disorders including multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, and asthma.

Background Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is well known for activating the innate immune system; however, it is also highly expressed in adaptive immune cells, such as CD4+ T-helper 17 (Th17) cells, which play a key role in multiple sclerosis (MS) pathology.

Survival Proteins Encourage Human T Helper 17 Cells to Escape from Cell Death
IL-17 producing T helper 17 (Th17) cells are identified as a distinct subset of CD4+ T helper cells. They play a role in immune response. Abnormal regulation of Th17 cells can play a role in different type of pathologies such autoimmune diseases and ...

Dysregulation of Th17 cells during the early post-transplant period in patients under calcineurin inhibitor based immunosuppression. [PDF]
Accumulating evidence suggests that Th17 cells play a role in the development of chronic allograft injury in transplantation of various organs. However, the influence of current immunosuppressants on Th17-associated immune responses has not been fully ...
