Increased IL-22- and IL-17A-Producing Mucosal-Associated Invariant T Cells in the Peripheral Blood of Patients With Ankylosing Spondylitis
The IL-23/T helper 17 (Th17) axis plays an important role in joint inflammation in ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Conventional CD4+ Th17 cells are a major source of IL-17A.
