Abstract

The dysregulation of inflammatory cytokines can cause a variety of diseases, such as autoimmunity and cancer. Since their identification in 2005, Th17 cells and its signature cytokine IL-17, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases such as psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and inflammatory associated cancers such as colorectal carcinoma (CRC). Recently, IL-22 a Th17 related cytokine has been shown to be pathogenic in psoriasis and RA. In this review, we will summarize the biological functions of IL-17 and IL-22, their role in autoimmune diseases and briefly review results from clinical trials targeting IL-17 or its receptor for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Next, we will discuss pre-clinical and clinical data supporting the rationale of targeting other cytokines implicated in the Th17/IL-17 pathway, such as IL-22 and IL-23. Finally, we discuss the role of IL-17, and in particularly IL-22 in tumour immunity and possible therapeutic interventions.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 14. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 23 August 2022.
All research outputs
#2,542,982
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from Actas Dermo-Sifiliográficas
#36
of 1,069 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#27,686
of 265,645 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Actas Dermo-Sifiliográficas
#3
of 15 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 89th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,069 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 96% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 265,645 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 89% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 15 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% of its contemporaries.
