The interleukin‐23 axis in intestinal inflammation

Ahern, Philip P., Izcue, Ana, Maloy, Kevin J., Powrie, Fiona·2008·Immunological Reviews

Abstract

Summary: Immune responses in the intestine are tightly regulated to ensure host protective immunity in the absence of immune pathology. Interleukin‐23 (IL‐23) has recently been shown to be a key player in influencing the balance between tolerance and immunity in the intestine. Production of IL‐23 is enriched within the intestine and has been shown to orchestrate T‐cell‐dependent and T‐cell‐independent pathways of intestinal inflammation through effects on T‐helper 1 (Th1) and Th17‐associated cytokines. Furthermore, IL‐23 restrains regulatory T‐cell responses in the gut, favoring inflammation. Polymorphisms in the IL‐23 receptor have been associated with susceptibility to inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) in humans, pinpointing the IL‐23 axis as a key, conserved pathway in intestinal homeostasis. In addition to its role in dysregulated inflammatory responses, there is also evidence that IL‐23 and the Th17 axis mediate beneficial roles in host protective immunity and barrier function in the intestine. Here we discuss the dual roles of IL‐23 in intestinal immunity and how IL‐23 and downstream effector pathways may make novel targets for the treatment of IBD.

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.
