Research Abstract |
In human gingival epithelial cell lines, Epi4 cells, IL-17 up-regulated inflammatory cytokines and chemokines including CXCL8. IL-17, as well as TNF-α, is involved in the regulation of the innate immune response in gingival epithelial cells. Further studies are needed to examine the roles of interactions among periodontopathic bacteria, IL-17A and IL-17C in the pathogenesis of periodontitis.
