Target type: biologicalprocess
Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of an interleukin-17 stimulus. [GOC:pr]
Interleukin-17 (IL-17) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that plays a crucial role in host defense against various pathogens, particularly extracellular bacteria and fungi. Upon binding to its receptor, IL-17 receptor (IL-17R), it triggers a signaling cascade that culminates in the activation of downstream transcription factors, ultimately leading to the expression of genes involved in inflammatory responses. The cellular response to IL-17 is a multifaceted process involving several key steps:
1. **Ligand Binding and Receptor Activation:** IL-17 binds to its receptor, IL-17R, which is a heterodimer composed of IL-17RA and IL-17RC subunits. This binding event initiates the signaling cascade.
2. **Signal Transduction:** Upon ligand binding, the IL-17R complex recruits adaptor proteins, including Act1 and TRAF6, which activate downstream signaling pathways.
3. **Activation of Transcription Factors:** The activated signaling pathways converge on the activation of transcription factors, such as NF-κB, AP-1, and STAT3. These transcription factors translocate to the nucleus and bind to specific DNA sequences, promoting the expression of target genes.
4. **Gene Expression and Inflammatory Response:** The activated transcription factors induce the expression of a wide range of genes involved in inflammation, including cytokines, chemokines, adhesion molecules, and antimicrobial peptides.
5. **Recruitment of Immune Cells:** IL-17-induced expression of chemokines attracts neutrophils, macrophages, and other immune cells to the site of inflammation.
6. **Defense against Pathogens:** The recruited immune cells, along with the production of antimicrobial peptides, contribute to the clearance of pathogens.
7. **Tissue Remodeling and Repair:** IL-17 also promotes tissue remodeling and repair processes after infection or injury.
The cellular response to IL-17 is tightly regulated to ensure appropriate immune responses and prevent excessive inflammation. Dysregulation of IL-17 signaling can contribute to various inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, and multiple sclerosis.
In addition to the canonical signaling pathway described above, IL-17 can also activate alternative signaling pathways, such as the MAPK pathway, which contribute to its pro-inflammatory effects. Moreover, IL-17 can act in synergy with other cytokines, such as TNF-α and IL-6, to amplify inflammatory responses.
Overall, the cellular response to IL-17 is a complex and tightly regulated process that plays a critical role in host defense and inflammation.'
