Specification

• Description: IL17, also known as IL17a, is a cytokine belongs to the IL-17 family. Cytokines are proteinaceous signaling compounds that are major mediators of the immune response. They control many different cellular functions including proliferation, differentiation and cell survival/apoptosis but are also involved in several pathophysiological pr centigradeesses including viral infections and autoimmune diseases. Cytokines are synthesized under various stimuli by a variety of cells of both the innate (mon centigradeytes, macrophages, dendritic cells) and adaptive (T- and B-cells) immune systems. The IL-17 family of cytokines includes six members, IL-17/IL-17A, IL-17B, IL-17C, IL-17D, IL-17E/IL-25, and IL-17F, which are produced by multiple cell types. IL-17 regulates the activities of NF-kappaB and mitogen-activated protein kinases. This cytokine can stimulate the expression of IL6 and cyclooxygenase-2 (PTGS2/COX-2), as well as enhance the production of nitric oxide (NO). High levels of IL-17 are ass centigradeiated with several chronic inflammatory diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and multiple sclerosis.

Q&As

Could you explain the role of IL17A in autoimmune disease progression using animal models?

Animal models, such as experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, explore IL17A's role in autoimmunity.

Can you detail the protocols for inducing IL17A expression in T cells in vitro?

Inducing IL17A expression in T cells involves culturing them with specific cytokines.

What strategies elucidate IL17A's impact on tissue-specific inflammation in human samples?

Studying IL17A's influence on tissue-specific inflammation in humans involves analyzing patient samples.

Can you elaborate on the use of neutralizing antibodies in blocking IL17A's effects?

Neutralizing antibodies block IL17A's effects in cell cultures or animal models.

How does one perform a multiplex cytokine assay to quantify IL17A along with other cytokines?

Multiplex cytokine assays use fluorescent beads to measure IL17A and other cytokines simultaneously.

How is the IL17A receptor (IL17RA) signaling pathway activated and studied?

IL17RA signaling is triggered by IL17A binding and is studied through downstream phosphorylation assays.

What are the methods to investigate the impact of IL17A on epithelial barrier integrity?

Methods like transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) assay evaluate IL17A's effect on barrier function.

How is IL17A's contribution to neutrophil recruitment assessed in inflammatory models?

Inflammatory models, like airway inflammation assays, examine IL17A's impact on neutrophil recruitment.

What techniques are used to analyze IL17A-producing cell populations within a tissue?

Flow cytometry or intracellular staining help identify IL17A-producing cell subsets within tissues.
