Transcriptional signature of human pro-inflammatory TH17 cells identifies reduced IL10 gene expression in multiple sclerosis

CD4+ T cells secreting interleukin-17 (TH17) have diverse functions in modulating autoimmune diseases. Here the authors show via transcriptome analyses that a subset of human TH 17 co-expressing interferon-γ (TH1/17) has a molecular signature similar to “pathogenic” mouse TH 17 but distinct from “no...
