Increased expression of interleukin 17 in inflammatory bowel disease
- S. Fujino, A. Andoh, +5 authors Y. Fujiyama
- Medicine
- Gut
- 1 January 2003
Background and aim: Interleukin (IL) 17 is a cytokine which exerts strong proinflammatory activities. In this study we evaluated changes in IL-17 expression in the inflamed mucosa and in the serum of… Expand
IL-22 ameliorates intestinal inflammation in a mouse model of ulcerative colitis.
- Ken Sugimoto, A. Ogawa, +6 authors A. Mizoguchi
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of clinical investigation
- 1 February 2008
Expression of IL-22 is induced in several human inflammatory conditions, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Expression of the IL-22 receptor is restricted to innate immune cells; however,… Expand
Interleukin-22, a member of the IL-10 subfamily, induces inflammatory responses in colonic subepithelial myofibroblasts.
- A. Andoh, Zhuobin Zhang, +9 authors Y. Fujiyama
- Biology, Medicine
- Gastroenterology
- 1 September 2005
BACKGROUND & AIMS
Interleukin (IL)-22, a member of the IL-10 subfamily, is a recently identified T-cell-derived cytokine. We investigated IL-22 expression in the inflamed mucosa of patients with… Expand

Interleukin-33 expression is specifically enhanced in inflamed mucosa of ulcerative colitis
- A. Kobori, Yuhki Yagi, +6 authors A. Andoh
- Medicine
- Journal of Gastroenterology
- 20 April 2010
BackgroundInterleukin (IL)-33 is a cytokine belonging to the IL-1 family. IL-33 has been shown to elicit a Th2-like cytokine response in immune cells. In this study, we investigated IL-33 expression… Expand
