The interleukin-23 axis in intestinal inflammation
... In early studies, IL-23 was shown to induce interferon-g (IFNg) production from activated T cells, suggesting overlapping function with IL-12 (35). However, more recent work has focused on its ability to promote a novel subset of IL-17producing CD41 helper T cells termed Th17 cells (37, 45). Th17 ce ...
