Yin and yang of interleukin-17 in host immunity to infection [version 1; referees: 2 approved] [PDF]
, 2017 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.

Tbet or Continued RORγt Expression Is Not Required for Th17-Associated Immunopathology [PDF]
, 2016 The discovery of Th17 cell plasticity, in which CD4 + IL-17-producing Th17 cells give rise to IL-17/IFN-γ double-producing cells and Th1-like IFNγ+ ex-Th17 lymphocytes, has raised questions regarding which of these cell types contribute to ...

Th17 Cells and Transplant Acceptance [PDF]
Transplantation, 2010 The discovery of Th17 cells has revealed a novel pathway of T-cell maturation. As with Th1 and Th2 lineages, Th17 cells promote graft pathology. However, a growing body of evidence indicates that Th17 cells may exhibit resistance to current methods of immunosuppression.

B Cells Regulate Neutrophilia during Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection and BCG Vaccination by Modulating the Interleukin-17 Response [PDF]
, 2013 We have previously demonstrated that B cells can shape the immune response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis, including the level of neutrophil infiltration and granulomatous inflammation at the site of infection. The present study examined the mechanisms by
