IL-17A, IL-17RC polymorphisms and IL17 plasma levels in Tunisian patients with rheumatoid arthritis
BACKGROUND Interleukin-17 (IL-17), a cytokine mainly secreted by Th17 cells, seems to play a significant role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Functional genetic polymorphisms in IL-17 and its receptor genes can influence either qualitatively or quantitatively their functions. Therefore, we aimed to study the impact of IL17-A and IL17RC polymorphisms on plasma level of IL-17 an...
متن کاملIncreased IL-17A but Decreased IL-27 Serum Levels in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis
Background: Effector CD4+ T cell subsets play an important role in Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Interleukin-27 (IL-27) suppresses Th (Th1, Th2 and Th17) cells and dampens autoimmunity and tissue inflammation by promoting the generation of Type 1 regulatory T cells (Tr1). Objective: To identify the relative levels of IL-27 and IL-17A in MS disease. Method: In a case-control study, venous blood was c...
متن کاملPlasma IL-17A levels in patients with late-life depression.
OBJECTIVE A consistent body of research has confirmed that patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) have increased concentrations of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β, the soluble IL-2 receptor, and C-reactive protein, compared to controls; however, there is limited information on IL-17A in MDD. Moreover, information about IL-17A in older populations, i.e., patients ...
متن کاملserum levels of il-17, il-4, and infî³ in serbian patients with early rheumatoid arthritis
background: rheumatoid arthritis (ra) is a chronic, systemic, inflammatory disease with autoimmune etiology, characterized by synovial inflammation and destruction of joint cartilage and bone. there are controversial data about the profile of interleukin-17 (il-17a), interleukin-4 (il-4), and interferon-gamma (infî³), indicating in some studies the key role of il-17, while in others the th1 cyt...
متن کاملThe association of IL-17A polymorphisms with IL-17A serum levels and risk of ischemic stroke
The aim of our study was to investigate the association of interleukin-17A (IL-17A) polymorphisms with IL-17A serum levels and risk of ischemic stroke (IS) in a Chinese population. 392 IS patients and 443 controls were included in this study. The polymorphisms of IL-17A gene were determined by Snapshot SNP genotyping assay and DNA sequencing. Serum IL-17A levels were measured by enzyme-linked i...
