lüll The IL-23/Th17 axis in the immunopathogenesis of psoriasis Di Cesare A; Di Meglio P; Nestle FOJ Invest Dermatol 2009[Jun]; 129 (6): 1339-50Abnormal production of inflammatory mediators is believed to play an important role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. Emerging data, both in mice and in humans, put the spotlight on a new subset of T helper (Th) cells, in part characterized by their production of IL-17 and accordingly named Th17 cells. Here, we review the development, characterization, and function of human Th17 cells as well as the crucial role of IL-23 in the context of Th17-cell-dependent chronic inflammation in psoriasis. We further discuss recent clinical trials targeting the IL-23/Th17 axis in psoriasis.|Animals[MESH]|Cell Proliferation[MESH]|Clinical Trials as Topic[MESH]|Cytokines/metabolism[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Immune System[MESH]|Interleukin-23/*immunology/*physiology[MESH]|Mice[MESH]|Models, Biological[MESH]|Phosphorylation[MESH]|Protein Structure, Tertiary[MESH]|Psoriasis/*immunology/therapy[MESH]|Receptors, Interleukin/*metabolism[MESH]|T-Lymphocytes, Helper-Inducer/*metabolism[MESH] |
