摘要
近年研究发现了效应性辅助性T细胞的新亚群-Th17细胞,它主要分泌IL-17、IL-17F、IL-21和IL-22等细胞因子。Th17细胞及其效应分子被认为与自身免疫病和其他多种疾病相关。该文从Th17细胞的发现、人和小鼠Th17细胞的分化、Th17细胞的效应性因子及与健康和疾病的相关性几个方面对目前的研究进展进行了综述。
Th17 cells are a newly discovered subset of effector T helper cells,and mainly produce cytokines such as IL-17, IL-17F, IL-21and IL-22. Th17 cells and Th17-specific cytokines are thought to be associated with autoimmune disease and many other diseases. Here, we review the current progress of Th17 cells, including the discovery of Th17 cells, the differentiation of Th17 cells in both murine and human beings, Th17-specific cytokines and effector function with health and disease in detail.
