Genetic and pharmacological inhibition of the nuclear receptor RORα regulates TH17 driven inflammatory disorders
4 Jan 2021
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Full development of IL-17 producing CD4+ T helper cells (TH17 cells) requires the transcriptional activity of both orphan nuclear receptors RORα and RORγt. However, RORα is considered functionally redundant to RORγt; therefore, the function and therapeutic value of RORα in TH17 cells is unclear. Here, using mouse models of autoimmune and chronic inflammation, we show that expression of RORα is required...
