Trained immunity: A program of innate immune memory in health and disease

TL;DR: Proof-of-principle experimental studies support the hypothesis that trained immunity is one of the main immunological processes that mediate the nonspecific protective effects against infections induced by vaccines, such as bacillus Calmette-Guérin or measles vaccination.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interleukin-1 and IL-23 induce innate IL-17 production from gammadelta T cells, amplifying Th17 responses and autoimmunity.

TL;DR: It is shown that gammadelta T cells express IL-23R and the transcription factor RORgammat and produce IL-17, IL-21, and IL-22 in response to IL-1beta andIL-23, without T cell receptor engagement.
Journal ArticleDOI

A crucial role for interleukin (IL)-1 in the induction of IL-17–producing T cells that mediate autoimmune encephalomyelitis

TL;DR: IL-1 functions upstream of IL-17 to promote pathogenic ThIL-17 cells in EAE, and essential roles for phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, nuclear factor κB, and novel protein kinase C isoforms in IL-1– and IL-23–mediated IL- 17 production are demonstrated.
