Interleukin-17 family and IL-17 receptors.
Interleukin-17 (IL-17) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine secreted by activated T-cells. Recently discovered related molecules are forming a family of cytokines, the IL-17 family. The prototype member of the family has been designated IL-17A. Due to recent advances in the human genome sequencing and proteomics five additional members have been identified and cloned: IL-17B, IL-17C, IL-17D, IL-17E a...
متن کاملTargeting interleukin-17 receptors
During the last decade, increasing evidence suggests a strong association between chronic inflammation and cancer development among different types of cancer. The dysregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines or their receptors is a common feature observed in many cancers [1]. Cancer cells take advantage of cytokine or cytokine receptor overexpression to benefit their own growth or invasive capac...
متن کاملAirway neutrophils and interleukin-17.
It is well known that exacerbations of obstructive airways disease such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are associated with an increased number of neutrophils in the airways. However, the mechanisms behind this phenomenon are poorly understood. There is in vivo experimental evidence that the number of airway neutrophils is controlled by certain T-lymphocytes, but the mediato...
متن کاملSerum Interleukin-17 Evaluation in Patients With Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disease
Background: Eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders or diseases (EGIDs) may result from an abnormal immune-mediated response to food antigens. Activated eosinophils release various mediators with inflammatory properties which may result in tissue and subsequently organ damage. The cytokine milieu of these patients has revealed increased levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, inc...
متن کاملInterleukin-17 Serum Levels and TLR4 Polymorphisms in Ulcerative Colitis
Background: Inflammatory bowel disease, an autoimmune disease, has two clinical manifestations including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis (UC). IL-17 has been the target of intensive research in autoimmune diseases. The influence of Toll like receptor 4 (TLR-4) gene polymorphisms on IL-17 production has also been revealed in UC patients and tissue inflammation in mice. Objectives: To inve...
