lüll Th17 cells and their associated cytokines in liver diseases Lafdil F; Miller AM; Ki SH; Gao BCell Mol Immunol 2010[Jul]; 7 (4): 250-4T helper 17 (Th17) cells are a newly identified subset of T helper cells that play important roles in host defense against extracellular bacteria as well as in the pathogenesis of autoimmune disease. The functions of Th17 cells are mediated via the production of several cytokines including interleukin (IL)-17 and IL-22. Recent studies show that the frequency of IL-17(+) cells is significantly elevated in a variety of chronic liver diseases including alcoholic liver disease, viral hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma. IL-17 receptor is expressed virtually on all types of liver cells, while IL-22 receptor expression is restricted to epithelial cells including hepatocytes in the liver. IL-17 seems to play an important role in inducing liver inflammation via stimulating multiple types of liver nonparenchymal cells to produce proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines, while IL-22 appears to be an important factor in promoting hepatocyte survival and proliferation.|Animals[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Interleukin-17/*immunology[MESH]|Interleukin-22[MESH]|Interleukins/*immunology[MESH]|Liver Diseases/*immunology[MESH]|T-Lymphocytes, Helper-Inducer/*immunology[MESH] |
