Th17 cell plasticity is crucial for development of autoinflammatory disease pathology. Periodontitis a prevalent inflammatory where cells mediate key pathological roles, yet whether they exhibit any functional remains unexplored. We found that during periodontitis, gingival IL-17 fate-mapped T still predominantly produce IL-17A, with little diversification cytokine production. However, did occur but in the gingiva draining lymph node. Here, some acquired features Tfh cells, was dependent on...
Abstract Psoriasis is a common chronic inflammatory skin disease with no cure. It driven by the IL-23/IL-17A axis and T H 17 cells but, recently group 3 innate lymphoid (ILC3s) have also been implicated. However, development, factors regulating activity of ILC3s remain incompletely understood. Immune regulatory pathways are particularly important at barrier sites such as skin, gut lung, which exposed to environmental substances microbes. CD200R1 an immune cell surface receptor inhibits...
