Abstract:
Bronchiolitis is a common lower respiratory infection disease in children younger than two years old.The main pathogen of bronchiolitis is respiratory syncytial virus,which is also associated with the asthma.By now,it is still unknown about the pathogenesis of bronchiolitis.Recent findings provide that T helper17(Th17) cells play an important role in bronchiolitis.This review summarizes the progresses of regulation of Th17 cells development,Th17 cells function,and the relationship between Th17 cells and bronchiolitis.
