Interleukin (IL)-22 and IL-17 are coexpressed by Th17 cells and cooperatively enhance expression of antimicrobial peptides

TL;DR: IL-22 is identified as a new cytokine expressed by Th17 cells that synergizes with IL- 17A or IL-17F to regulate genes associated with skin innate immunity.

Engagement of Glucocorticoid-Induced TNFR Family-Related Receptor on Effector T Cells by its Ligand Mediates Resistance to Suppression by CD4+CD25+ T Cells

TL;DR: GITR-L provides an important signal for CD25− T cells, rendering them resistant to CD25+-mediated regulation at the initiation of the immune response, and may enhance the susceptibility of effector T cells to suppressor activity during the course of an infectious insult.

Antibodies against PD-1

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provided antibodies and antigen-binding fragments that can act as agonists and/or antagonists of PD-1 (Programmed Death 1), thereby modulating immune responses in general, and those mediated by TcR and CD28, in particular.
Journal ArticleDOI

Program death-1 engagement upon TCR activation has distinct effects on costimulation and cytokine-driven proliferation: attenuation of ICOS, IL-4, and IL-21, but not CD28, IL-7, and IL-15 responses.

TL;DR: It is suggested that IL-7 and IL-15 restore proliferation under conditions of PD-1 engagement by enhancing high-affinity IL-2R expression and hence,IL-2 responsiveness, and thus, STAT5 has been implicated in the maintenance of IL- 2Rα expression.
