Abstract excerpt
Th17 lymphocytes play a key role during immune responses against bacteria and fungi and are involved in the pathophysiology of multiple autoimmune disorders. The co-stimulatory molecules SLAMF3 and SLAMF6 have been implicated in the formation of Th17 phenotypes and IL-17A expression. Increased surface expression of SLAMF3 and SLAMF6 has been linked with disease activity in systemic lupus erythematosus. Here we...
