Clinical Associations of Serum Interleukin-17 in Systemic Lupus Vincent et al. Arthritis Research & Therapy 2013, 15:R97 http://arthritis-research.com/content/15/4/R97 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Clinical associations of serum interleukin-17 in systemic lupus erythematosus Fabien B Vincent1*, Melissa Northcott2, Alberta Hoi2, Fabienne Mackay1 and Eric F Morand2 Abstract Introduction: Serum interleukin (IL)-17 concentrations have been reported to be increased in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but associations with clinical characteristics are not well understood. We characterized clinical associations of serum IL-17 in SLE. Methods: We quantified IL-17 in serum samples from 98 SLE patients studied cross-sectionally, and in 246 samples from 75 of these patients followed longitudinally over two years. Disease activity was recorded using the SLE Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI)-2k. Serum IL-6, migration inhibitory factor (MIF), and B cell activating factor of the tumour necrosis factor family (BAFF) were also measured in these samples. Results: Serum IL-17 levels were significantly higher in SLE patients compared to healthy donors (P <0.0001). No correlation was observed between serum IL-17 and SLEDAI-2k, at baseline or during longitudinal follow-up. However, we observed that SLEDAI-2k was positively correlated with IL-17/IL-6 ratio. Serum IL-17 was significantly increased in SLE patients with central nervous system (CNS) disease (P = 0.0298). A strong correlation was observed between serum IL-17 and IL-6 (r = 0.62, P <0.0001), and this relationship was observed regardless of disease activity and persisted when integrating cytokine levels over the period observed (r = 0.66, P <0.0001). A strong correlation of serum IL-17 was also observed with serum BAFF (r = 0.64, P <0.0001), and MIF (r = 0.36, P = 0.0016). Conclusions: Serum IL-17 concentration correlates poorly with SLE disease activity but is significantly elevated in patients with CNS disease. IL-17/IL-6 ratio may be more useful than IL-17 or IL-6 alone to characterize Th17-driven disease, such as SLE. The association of other cytokines with serum IL-17 suggests that IL-17 may drive activation of diverse immune pathways in SLE.

  • Interleukin-33 Signaling Exacerbates Experimental Infectious Colitis by Enhancing Gut Permeability and Inhibiting Protective Th17 Immunity
    www.nature.com/mi ARTICLE OPEN Interleukin-33 signaling exacerbates experimental infectious colitis by enhancing gut permeability and inhibiting protective Th17 immunity Vittoria Palmieri1, Jana-Fabienne Ebel1, Nhi Ngo Thi Phuong1, Robert Klopfleisch2, Vivian Pham Vu3,4, Alexandra Adamczyk1, Julia Zöller1, Christian Riedel5, Jan Buer1, Philippe Krebs3, Wiebke Hansen1, Eva Pastille1 and Astrid M. Westendorf 1 A wide range of microbial pathogens is capable of entering the gastrointestinal tract, causing infectious diarrhea and colitis. A finely tuned balance between different cytokines is necessary to eradicate the microbial threat and to avoid infection complications. The current study identified IL-33 as a critical regulator of the immune response to the enteric pathogen Citrobacter rodentium.We observed that deficiency of the IL-33 signaling pathway attenuates bacterial-induced colitis. Conversely, boosting this pathway strongly aggravates the inflammatory response and makes the mice prone to systemic infection. Mechanistically, IL-33 mediates its detrimental effect by enhancing gut permeability and by limiting the induction of protective T helper 17 cells at the site of infection, thus impairing host defense mechanisms against the enteric pathogen. Importantly, IL-33-treated infected mice supplemented with IL-17A are able to resist the otherwise strong systemic spreading of the pathogen. These findings reveal a novel IL-33/IL-17A crosstalk that controls the pathogenesis of Citrobacter rodentium-driven infectious colitis. Manipulating the dynamics of cytokines may offer new therapeutic strategies to treat specific intestinal infections. 1234567890();,: Mucosal Immunology (2021) 14:923–936; https://doi.org/10.1038/s41385-021-00386-7 INTRODUCTION epithelial cells, and endothelial cells in response to injury6.

Modlin*,†† Th17 cells play a critical role in the adaptive immune response against extracellular bacteria, and the possible mechanisms by which they can protect against infection are of particular interest. In this study, we describe, to our knowledge, a novel IL-1b dependent pathway for secretion of the antimicrobial peptide IL-26 from human Th17 cells that is independent of and more rapid than classical TCR activation. We find that IL-26 is secreted 3 hours after treating PBMCs with Mycobacterium leprae as compared with 48 hours for IFN-g and IL-17A. IL-1b was required for microbial ligand induction of IL-26 and was sufficient to stimulate IL-26 release from Th17 cells. Only IL-1RI+ Th17 cells responded to IL-1b, inducing an NF-kB–regulated transcriptome. Finally, supernatants from IL-1b–treated memory T cells killed Escherichia coli in an IL-26–dependent manner. These results identify a mechanism by which human IL-1RI+ “antimicrobial Th17 cells” can be rapidly activated by IL-1b as part of the innate immune response to produce IL-26 to kill extracellular bacteria.

The term ‘interleukin’ (IL) has been used to describe a group of cytokines with complex immunomodulatory functions — including cell proliferation, maturation, migration and adhesion. These cytokines also play an important role in immune cell differentiation and activation. Determining the exact function of a particular cytokine is complicated by the influence of the producing cell type, the responding cell type and the phase of the immune response. ILs can also have pro- and anti-inflammatory effects, further complicating their characterisation. These molecules are under constant pressure to evolve due to continual competition between the host’s immune system and infecting organisms; as such, ILs have undergone significant evolution. This has resulted in little amino acid conservation between orthologous proteins, which further complicates the gene family organisation. Within the literature there are a number of overlapping nomenclature and classification systems derived from biological function, receptor-binding properties and originating cell type.

Epithelial cells are the first line of defense against external dangers, and contribute to induction of adaptive immunity including Th17 responses. However, it is unclear whether specific epithelial signaling pathways are essential for the development of robust IL-17–mediated immune responses. In mice, the development of psoriatic inflammation induced by imiquimod required keratinocyte TRAF6. Conditional deletion of TRAF6 in keratinocytes abrogated dendritic cell activation, IL-23 production, and IL-17 production by γδ T cells at the imiquimod-treated sites.

  • Local and Systemic Effects of IL-17 in Joint Inflammation
    www.nature.com/cmi Cellular & Molecular Immunology REVIEW ARTICLE Local and systemic effects of IL-17 in joint inflammation: a historical perspective from discovery to targeting Pierre Miossec 1 The role of IL-17 in many inflammatory and autoimmune diseases is now well established, with three currently registered anti-IL-17- targeted therapies. This story has taken place over a period of 20 years and led to the demonstration that a T cell product could regulate, and often amplify, the inflammatory response. The first results described the contribution of IL-17 to local features in arthritis. Then, understanding was extended to its systemic effects, with a focus on cardiovascular aspects. This review provides a historical perspective of these discoveries focused on arthritis, which started in 1995, followed 10 years later by the description of Th17 cells. Today, IL-17 inhibitors for three chronic inflammatory diseases have been registered. More options are now being tested in ongoing and future clinical trials. Inhibitors of IL-17 family members and Th17 cells ranging from antibodies to small molecules are under active development. The identification of patients with IL-17-driven disease is a key target for the improved selection of patients expected to have a strongly positive response.
