The role of T helper type 17 cells in inflammatory arthritis.
While T cells have been implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory arthritis for more than three decades, the focus on the T helper type 17 (Th17) subset of CD4 T cells and their secreted cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-17, is much more recent. Proinflammatory actions of IL-17 were first identified in the 1990s, but the delineation of a distinct Th17 subset in late 2005 has sparked grea...
متن کاملthe 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...
متن کاملP 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...
متن کاملthe 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...
متن کاملImmunotherapeutic effects of pentoxifylline in type 1 diabetic mice and its role in the response of T-helper lymphocytes
Objective(s):Pentoxifylline is an immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory agent and is used in vascular disorders. It has been shown that pentoxifylline inhibits proinflammatory [d1] cytokines production. The purpose of this study was to investigate the therapeutic effects of pentoxifylline on the treatment of autoimmune diabetes in mice. Materials and Methods: Diabetes was induced by multiple l...
