Abstract:
As a novel T cell population,Th17 cells are demonstrated to play an important role in autoimmune diseases,including Crohn' s disease.Several recent studies indicate the specific contributions of IL-23/Th17 axis and cytokines secreted by Th17 cells to the inflammatory bowel disease.This article is dedicated to describe the correlation between Th17 cells and Crohn' s disease.
