Lipopolysaccharide-Mediated Regulation of IL-17 Receptor Levels in Human Monocytes

IL-17 promotes inflammation through the recruitment of monocytes and induction of various chemokines and inflammatory cytokines. Monocytes respond to IL-17 through the heteromeric IL-17 receptor (IL-17R) composed of subunits IL-17RA and IL-17RC. Together, monocytes and IL-17 amplify inflammation....
