By conducting the MCCV on seed cross-talk, 3 hub cross-talk for BPD were uncovered: i) The pair of pathways role of interleukin-17F (IL-17F) in allergic inflammatory airway diseases and role of IL-17A in psoriasis; ii) the pair of pathways role of IL random forest 17A in psoriasis and IL-17A signaling in fibroblasts and ii) the pair of pathways IL-17A signaling in airway cells and role of hypercytokinemia/hyperchemokinemia in the pathogenesis of influenza.
Since increased IL-17A levels are observed to be localized in the lung compartments (BAL and lymphocytes) in comparison to circulating levels, an inhalable PI3Kδ inhibitor, which is currently utilized for inflammatory airway diseases characterized by IL-17A over-secretion, may be a therapeutic option for active TB disease.
IL-17-producing Th17 cells play an important role in allergic airway diseases, but their local expression and regulation in allergic rhinitis (AR) is not well understood.
Therefore, we hypothesized that IL-17A was involved in the pathogenesis of acute exacerbation, due to viral infection in chronic inflammatory airway diseases.
