Interleukins 1β and 6 but not transforming growth factor-β are essential for the differentiation of interleukin 17–producing human T helper cells
Abstract
Interleukin 17 (IL-17)-producing CD4(+) helper T cells (T(H)-17 cells) have been linked to host defense and autoimmune diseases. In mice, the differentiation of T(H)-17 cells requires transforming growth factor-beta and IL-6 and the transcription factor RORgammat. We report here that for human naive CD4(+) T cells, RORgammat expression and T(H)-17 polarization were induced by IL-1beta and enhanced by IL-6 but were suppressed by transforming growth factor-beta and IL-12. Monocytes and conventional dendritic cells, but not monocyte-derived dendritic cells activated by microbial stimuli, efficiently induced T(H)-17 priming, and this function correlated with antigen-presenting cell production of IL-1beta and IL-6 but not IL-12. Our results identify cytokines, antigen-presenting cells and microbial products that promote the polarization of human T(H)-17 cells and emphasize an important difference in the requirements for the differentiation of T(H)-17 cells in humans and mice.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
