## Abstract Th1 and Th17 cells are distinct lineages of effector/memory cells, imprinted for reβexpression of IFNβΞ³ and ILβ17, by upregulated expression of Tβbet and retinoic acidβrelated orphan receptor Ξ³t (RORΞ³t), respectively. Apparently, Th1 and Th17 cells share tasks in the control of inflamma
The recent discovery and characterization of T helper 17 cells (Th17) and their signature cytokines (IL-17) represents a hallmark in T-cell immunobiology by providing a new distinctive pathway for the communication between adaptive and innate immunity. From the six members of the IL-17 cytokine fami
Background: Interleukin (IL)-17F, produced in IL-23R-expressing Th17 cells, is a novel member of the IL-17 cytokine family. Given the association of IL23R with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), we characterized the role of IL-17F in IBD including its intestinal gene expression and the effect of the
