Identification of the IL-17 receptor related molecule IL-17RC as the receptor for IL-17F.
The proinflammatory cytokines IL-17A and IL-17F have a high degree of sequence similarity and share many biological properties. Both have been implicated as factors contributing to the progression of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Moreover, reagents that neutralize IL-17A significantly ameliorate disease severity in several mouse models of human disease. IL-17A mediates its effects throu...
متن کاملEvidence for ligand-independent multimerization of the IL-17 receptor.
IL-17 and its receptor are founding members of a novel inflammatory cytokine family. To date, only one IL-17 receptor subunit has been identified, termed IL-17RA. All known cytokine receptors consist of a complex of multiple subunits. Although IL-17-family cytokines exist as homodimers, the configuration and stoichiometry of the IL-17R complex remain unknown. We used fluorescence resonance ener...
متن کاملIL-6, IL-10 and IL-17 Gene Polymorphisms in Iranian Women with Recurrent Miscarriage
Background: Pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines and polymorphisms of their genes have been described to be involved in the pathogenesis of recurrent miscarriage (RM). Objective: To investigate the association between RM and five polymorphisms of cytokine genes, interleukin 10 (IL-10), (-592 A/C, -819 C/T, -1082 A/G), IL-6 (-174 C/G) and IL-17 (-197 G/A) in Iranian women. Method: Po...
متن کاملCytokines (IL-17, IL-23, and IL-33) in Systemic lupus erythematosus in Trinidad and Tobago.
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is the most common autoimmune disease. It is characterized by the presence of hundreds of autoantibodies against many organs and tissues, including the presence of a large number of autoantibodies, which are specific to self-antigens mainly of nuclear origin such as Smith antigen, double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), anti-Sjögren’s syndrome-related antigen A and B (SS...
متن کاملIL-22 and IL-17: An Overview
Many studies from recent years have shown that cytokines like IL-22, IL-17A, and IL-17F play a major role in both the defense against certain microbes and the development and maintenance of chronic inflammatory diseases. These mediators are often secreted by subpopulations of T-helper cells called Th17 cells and Th22 cells, respectively. This chapter provides an overview about the common and di...
