چکیده

IL-17A is implicated in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis; however, the contribution of IL-17F remains to be clarified. Using microarrays and gene-specific expression assays, we compared the regulatory effects of IL-17A and IL-17F alone or in combination with TNF-alpha on RA synoviocytes. IL-17A and IL-17F expression was studied in osteoarthritis and RA synovium by immunohistochemistry. The comparison between the IL-17A and IL-17F stimulatory effect on RA synoviocytes was assessed at the protein level by ELISA and at the mRNA level by microarrays and real-time RT-PCR. TNFRII expression was studied by real-time RT-PCR and immunofluorescence, and neutralizing Ab was used to analyze its contribution to CCL20 secretion. IL-17A and IL-17F were detected in plasma cell-like cells from RA but not osteoarthritis synovium. In microarrays, IL-17A and IL-17F alone had similar regulatory effects, IL-17F being quantitatively less active. Both cytokines induced a similar expression pattern in the presence of TNF-alpha. Based on a cooperation index, 130 and 203 genes were synergistically induced by IL-17A or IL-17F plus TNF-alpha, respectively. Among these, the new target genes CXCR4, LPL, and IL-32 were validated by real-time RT-PCR. IL-17A and IL-17F up-regulated TNFRII expression, but had no effects on TNFRI, IL-17RA or IL-17RC. TNFRII blockade inhibited the synergistic induction of CCL20 by IL-17A or IL-17F and TNF-alpha. IL-17A and IL-17F are both expressed in RA synovium. In the presence of TNF-alpha, they induced a similar expression pattern in RA synoviocytes. Accordingly, IL-17F appears as a target in Th17-mediated diseases such as RA.

Interleukin (IL)-17A, F and AF in inflammation: a study in collagen-induced arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis

Interleukin (IL)-17 plays a critical role in inflammation. Most studies to date have elucidated the inflammatory role of IL-17A, often referred to as IL-17. IL-17F is a member of the IL-17 family bearing 50% homology to IL-17A and can also be present as heterodimer IL-17AF. This study elucidates the distribution and contribution of IL-17A, F and AF in inflammatory arthritis. Neutralizing antibo...

Heterogeneous expression pattern of interleukin 17A (IL-17A), IL-17F and their receptors in synovium of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and osteoarthritis: possible explanation for nonresponse to anti-IL-17 therapy?

INTRODUCTION Accumulating evidence suggests an important role for interleukin 17 (IL-17) in the pathogenesis of several inflammatory diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Accordingly, clinical trials aimed at blocking IL-17 have been initiated, but clinical results between patients and across different diseases have been highly variable. The objective was ...

IL-17RA and IL-17RC receptors are essential for IL-17A-induced ELR+ CXC chemokine expression in synoviocytes and are overexpressed in rheumatoid blood.

IL-17A is a cytokine secreted by the newly described Th17 cells implicated in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Less is known about its receptors in synoviocytes. IL-17RA and IL-17RC were found to be overexpressed in RA peripheral whole blood and their expression was detected locally in RA synovium. In vitro, IL-17A synergized with TNF-alpha to induce IL-6, IL-8, CCL-20, and matrix metalloproteinase-3...

Ectopic lymphoid neogenesis is strongly associated with activation of the IL-23 pathway in rheumatoid synovitis

INTRODUCTION The functional relevance of synovial ectopic lymphoid neogenesis (ELN) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) remains unknown. As ELN correlates with the degree of tissue inflammation, we investigated whether ELN was associated with specific cytokine profiles. METHODS Synovial ELN was determined by immunohistology and long CD21 isoform (CD21L) expression. Cytokine expression was determined...

Interleukin-25 Produced by Synoviocytes Has Anti-inflammatory Effects by Acting As a Receptor Antagonist for Interleukin-17A Function

The production and function of cytokines are highly regulated. One mechanism is the balance between pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines. As interleukin (IL)-17A and IL-25 share the IL-17RA receptor chain, we hypothesize that IL-25 acts as an IL-17A receptor antagonist and limits its pro-inflammatory effects. The production and expression kinetics of IL-25 and its receptor chains IL-17RA and RB...
