Th17 cells mediate clade specific, serotype-independent mucosal immunity

The interleukin-17 (IL-17) family of cytokines phylogenetically pre-dates the evolution of T cells in jawed vertebrates, suggesting that the ontogeny of the Th17 cell lineage must have arisen to confer an evolutionary advantage to the host over innate sources of IL-17. Using a model of mucosal immun...
