IL-25 (IL-17E) in epithelial immunology and pathophysiology

gnorimies2015 shared this article with you from Inoreader IL-25 (IL-17E) in epithelial immunology and pathophysiology Via Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology IL-25, also known as IL-17E, is a unique cytokine of the IL-17 family. Indeed, IL-25 exclusively was shown to strongly induce expression of the cytokines associated with type 2 immunity. Although produced by several types of immune cells, such as T cells, dendritic cells, or group 2 innate lymphoid cells, a vast amount of IL-25 derives from epithelial cells. The functions of IL-25 have been actively studied in the context of physiology and pathology of various organs including skin, airways and lungs, gastrointestinal tract, and thymus.
