Potential Involvement of IL-17F in Asthma
The expression of IL-17F is seen in the airway of asthmatics and its level is correlated with disease severity. Several studies have demonstrated that IL-17F plays a pivotal role in allergic airway inflammation and induces several asthma-related molecules such as CCL20. IL-17F-induced CCL20 may attract Th17 cells into the airway resulting in the recruitment of additional Th17 cells to enhance a...
متن کاملRegulation of inflammatory responses by IL-17F
Although interleukin (IL) 17 has been extensively characterized, the function of IL-17F, which has an expression pattern regulated similarly to IL-17, is poorly understood. We show that like IL-17, IL-17F regulates proinflammatory gene expression in vitro, and this requires IL-17 receptor A, tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6, and Act1. In vivo, overexpression of IL-17F in lung ...
متن کاملExpression of the T Helper 17-Associated Cytokines IL-17A and IL-17F in Asthma and COPD
BACKGROUND Asthma and COPD are characterized by airway dysfunction and inflammation. Neutrophilic airway inflammation is a common feature of COPD and is recognized in asthma, particularly in severe disease. The T helper (Th) 17 cytokines IL-17A and IL-17F have been implicated in the development of neutrophilic airway inflammation, but their expression in asthma and COPD is uncertain. METHODS ...
متن کاملIdentification of cells expressing IL-17A and IL-17F in the lungs of patients with COPD.
BACKGROUND Lymphocytes secrete IL-17A and IL-17F, which enhance innate immune responses. IL-17 expression has not been studied in COPD small airways. The aim of this study was to quantify IL-17A and IL-17F expression in the peripheral lung tissue of patients with COPD compared with control subjects and to identify inflammatory cells that express IL-17. METHODS IL-17 expression was assessed us...
متن کاملInterleukin-17A and Interleukin-17F mRNA Expressions in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells of Patients with Multiple Sclerosis
Bakground: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a CD4+ T cell-mediated autoimmune disease affecting the central nervous system (CNS). It was previously believed that Th1 cells were pathogenic T cells in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). However, the functional role of Th1 cells in EAE has been reconsidered upon the discovery of IL-17- producing T cells which are consider as dominant effect...
