IL-17 mRNA in sputum of asthmatic patients: linking T cell driven inflammation and granulocytic influx?

BACKGROUND: The role of Th2 cells (producing interleukin (IL-)4, IL-5 and IL-13) in allergic asthma is well-defined. A distinct proinflammatory T cell lineage has recently been identified, called Th(17 )cells, producing IL-17A, a cytokine that induces CXCL8 (IL-8) and recruits neutrophils. Neutrophi...
