IL-17A / Vio667 / CZ8-23G1

Product Details
Description Clone CZ8-23G1 detects human interleukin 17 (IL-17). Interleukin 17A (CTLA8), a member of the IL-17 family (IL-17A–F), is a disulfide-linked homodimeric glycoprotein. Human IL-17A consists of 155 amino acids with a molecular weight of around 35 kDa. IL-17A is produced by CD4+ T helper (Tʜ) cells, a third T cell subset termed Tʜ17, which secrete also cytokines such as IL-17F and IL-22 and express the NK cell marker CD161. IL-17A secretion has also been described for other cell types, such as CD8+ memory T cells. Furthermore, intracellular IL-17A has also been detected in eosinophils, neutrophils, and blood monocytes. Emerging data about Tʜ17 cells suggest that these cells are involved in the recruitment of neutrophils to control early stages of infections to a number of pathogens, such as extracellular bacteria and fungi. IL-17A and Tʜ17 cells have been shown to play an important role in immune-mediated diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, multiple sclerosis, asthma, inflammatory bowel diseases, and other immune-mediated inflammatory conditions. | Depending on the cytokine milieu present at time of the initial engagement, CD4+ naive T cells can differentiate into various subsets (Tʜ1, Tʜ2, and Tʜ17). For the differentiation into Tʜ17 cells several cytokines have been described, including TGF-beta, IL-1beta, IL-6, IL-21, and IL-23. RORgammat was identified as the master regulator gene for Tʜ17 cells. |

About IL-17A
This gene is a member of the IL-17 receptor family which includes five members (IL-17RA-E) and the encoded protein is a proinflammatory cytokine produced by activated T cells. IL-17A-mediated downstream pathways induce the production of inflammatory molecules, chemokines, antimicrobial peptides, and remodeling proteins. The encoded protein elicits crucial impacts on host defense, cell trafficking, immune modulation, and tissue repair, with a key role in the induction of innate immune defenses. This cytokine stimulates non-hematopoietic cells and promotes chemokine production thereby attracting myeloid cells to inflammatory sites. This cytokine also regulates the activities of NF-kappaB and mitogen-activated protein kinases and can stimulate the expression of IL6 and cyclooxygenase-2 (PTGS2/COX-2), as well as enhance the production of nitric oxide (NO). IL-17A plays a pivotal role in various infectious diseases, inflammatory and autoimmune disorders, and cancer. High levels of this cytokine are associated with several chronic inflammatory diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and multiple sclerosis. The lung damage induced by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is to a large extent, a result of the inflammatory response promoted by cytokines such as IL17A.
