Several studies showed that IL-17A was significantly increased in nasal polyps (NPs). However, the source and characteristics of IL-17A-producing cells in NPs were not fully understood.

Emergence of collective propulsion through cell-cell adhesion [PDF]
The mechanisms driving the collective movement of cells remain poorly understood. To contribute toward resolving this mystery, a model was formulated to theoretically explore the possible functions of polarized cell-cell adhesion in collective cell migration. The model consists of an amoeba cell with polarized cell-cell adhesion, which is controlled by

A cell membrane model that reproduces cortical flow-driven cell migration and collective movement [PDF]
Many fundamental biological processes are dependent on cellular migration. Although the mechanical mechanisms of single-cell migration are relatively well understood, those underlying migration of multiple cells adhered to each other in a cluster, referred to as cluster migration, are poorly understood.

Paracrine IL-2 Is Required for Optimal Type 2 Effector Cytokine Production [PDF]
IL-2 is a pleiotropic cytokine that promotes the differentiation of Th cell subsets, including Th1, Th2, and Th9 cells, but it impairs the development of Th17 and T follicular helper cells.

Induction of pathogenic Th17 cells by inducible salt sensing kinase SGK1
TH17 cells (interleukin-17 (IL-17)-producing helper T cells) are highly proinflammatory cells that are critical for clearing extracellular pathogens and for inducing multiple autoimmune diseases.

The role of Th17 cells and regulatory T cells in Coxsackievirus B3-induced myocarditis [PDF]
IL-17-producing (Th17) and regulatory T (Treg) cells have been well established in the pathogenesis of many inflammatory diseases. To assess whether Th17 and Treg were altered in acute virus-induced myocarditis (AVMC) mice, we assessed Th17/Treg ...

Dendritic Cells Regulate Treg-Th17 Axis in Obstructive Phase of Bile Duct Injury in Murine Biliary Atresia. [PDF]
Several cell types are considered to be effector cells in bile duct injury in rhesus rotavirus (RRV)-induced experimental biliary atresia (BA). Here, we identified an increased T helper 17 (Th17) cell population in a BA mode. By depleting the Th17 cells,

Identification of Th1-polarized Th17 cells: solving the problem
Helper T cells producing IL-17 (Th17) have high plasticity: restimulation of lymphocytes in an inflammatory environment can induce their transformation into cells with another phenotype, and a shift towards Th1 is the most common.

A Th17 sejtek szerepe rheumatoid arthritisben [PDF]
Th17 cells are the newly described subset of the CD4 + T lymphocytes. Activated Th17 cells are characterized by their ability to produce IL-17A and other pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Physical Confinement and Cell Proximity Increase Cell Migration Rates and Invasiveness: A Mathematical Model of Cancer Cell Invasion through Flexible Channels [PDF]
Cancer cell migration between different body parts is the driving force behind cancer metastasis, which is the main cause of mortality of patients. Migration of cancer cells often proceeds by penetration through narrow cavities in locally stiff, yet flexible tissues. In our previous work, we developed a model for cell geometry evolution during invasion,
