Determination and Characterization of Bovine Interleukin-17 cDNA
1 Mar 2006
Abstract excerpt
Interleukin-17 (IL-17) is a proinflammatory cytokine produced by activated memory T cells, and it appears to play an upstream role in T cell-triggered inflammation by stimulating stromal cells to secrete other cytokines. We hypothesize that IL-17 plays a role in the recruitment of neutrophils in the bovine mammary gland during infection or immune-mediated inflammation. The rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE)...
