Th17driven
Th17driven refers to a condition or process characterized by the predominant involvement of T helper 17 (Th17) cells. Th17 cells are a subset of CD4+ T lymphocytes that play a critical role in the immune system's defense against extracellular pathogens, particularly bacteria and fungi. They are known for producing cytokines such as interleukin-17 (IL-17), IL-22, and TNF-alpha.
In a Th17driven state, these cells are excessively activated or their cytokine products are produced in abnormally
The exact triggers for a Th17driven immune response are diverse and can include genetic predisposition, environmental
