Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - IL17A is a cytokine of the interleukin-17 (IL-17) family. - It is produced by a variety of cell types, including immune cells, endothelial cells, and stromal cells. - It is a potent activator of the NLRP3 inflammasome, which is involved in the regulation of inflammation. - It also plays a role in the regulation of cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation. **Pathways and functions:** - IL17A signaling is initiated by the binding of its receptor, IL17RA, to its receptor complex on immune cells. - This binding triggers the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, leading to the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. - IL17A also plays a role in the regulation of cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation. - It can promote the survival of immune cells, inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells, and promote the differentiation of naive T cells into effector T cells. - It also plays a role in the regulation of inflammation. **Clinical significance:** - IL17A is involved in a wide range of human diseases, including asthma, inflammatory bowel disease, psoriasis, and cancer. - Dysregulation of IL17A signaling has been implicated in the pathogenesis of these diseases. - Blockade of IL17A signaling has been shown to be effective in ameliorating disease symptoms. **Conclusion:** IL17A is a key cytokine that plays a critical role in the regulation of innate and adaptive immune responses. Its expression and activity are often altered in human diseases, suggesting that IL17A may be a potential therapeutic target for these diseases.
