Published: July 2020

Various immune cells and their messenger substances influence the development of psoriasis. Cytokines of the IL-17 family are of particular importance. In addition to IL-17A, which plays a central role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis, other subtypes of the IL-17 family also have a proinflammatory effect. This review provides an up-to-date overview of the immunopathogenesis of psoriasis with regard to the six IL-17 subtypes, in particular their physiological and pathogenic properties, as well as their significance for psoriasis therapy.

NLRP3 is a BMI-independent mediator of stable COPD.

Purpose: The inflammatory response in animal models of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is activated by the NLR-family-pyrin-domain-containing-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome pathway, which is also known to play a role in obesity-related inflammation. The NLRP3/caspase-1/interleukin (IL)-1β pathway might be involved in the progression of COPD with increasing body mass index. To our knowledge, no previous studies have explored the role of NLRP3 inflammasome markers in linking COPD and obesity.

Background: Lungs of people with Cystic Fibrosis (pwCF) are characterized by chronic inflammation and infection with P. aeruginosa. High levels of IL-17 A and F have been observed in sputum of pwCF and the interleukin-17(IL-17) family (A-to-F) has been suggested to play a key role in CF pulmonary disease.

Background And Aim: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is characterized by complex immunological interactions involving CD4 T cell subsets and the NLRP3 inflammasome, which influence inflammatory responses. This investigation focused on delineating the activation profiles of these components and their correlation with disease severity and activity, assessing their diagnostic implications in UC.

Methods: We conducted immunohistochemistry and ELISA assays to measure markers expression of CD4 T cell subsets and the NLRP3 inflammasome in UC patients versus controls.

Emerging evidence highlights the significance of peripheral inflammation in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and suggests the gut as a viable therapeutic target. This study aimed to explore the neuroprotective effects of the probiotic formulation VSL#3 and its underlying mechanism in a PD mouse model induced by MPTP. Following MPTP administration, the striatal levels of dopamine and its metabolites, as along with the survival rate of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, were significantly reduced in PD mice.
