The dichotomy of T helper 17 cells in cancer

the roles of t helper 1, t helper 17 and regulatory t cells in the pathogenesis of sarcoidosis

sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disorder of unidentified etiology, with a heterogeneous clinical presentation. it is characterized by a reduced delayed-type hypersensitivity to tuberculin and common antigens. the balance between th1, th17 and regulatory t(treg) cells controls t-cell proliferation and activation.the th17/treg ratio in the peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid...

T-helper-17, Regulatory T-helper Cells Related Serum Markers and IL-13 in the Outcome of Polytraumatic Patients with Bacteremia

the role of interleukin-23 in stability of in vitro t helper-17 cells.

interleukin (il)-17-producing t helper (th)-17 cells have recently been explained as a distinct population  of  cd4+  t  cells which play an important  role in immunity against infectious agents. establishment of persistent phenotype of th17 cells and recognition of lineage-deviating factors are of most attractive goals in modern researches in immunology. although  il-6  and  tgf-β  are  freque...

P 51: The Role of T Helper 17 in Pathogenesis of Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system (CNS) which causes demyelination of the nerve fibers. The etiology of this disease is not well understood but it is believed that T helpers play a central role in MS. Numerous findings support the view that Th17 cells play an essential role in pathogenesis of MS and IL-17 secreting T (Th17) cells have a role in infla...

Interleukin-17 and type 17 helper T cells in cancer management and research

Since their recent discovery, T helper 17 (Th17) cells have been frequently detected in the tumor microenvironment of many malignancies, but their clinical implications remain largely unknown. Interleukin-17 (IL-17) detection is commonly related with poor outcomes in colorectal cancers, yet its presence is associated with antitumor responses in ovarian carcinomas. Numerous experimental models i...
