Interplay of leukocytes, regulatory T cells, and interleukin-17+ cells in the pathogenesis of canine chronic ulcerative stomatitis
ConclusionsLeukocyte cell types and IL-17+ cells are important in this chronic disease process. This investigation adds to the scant body of literature on T-helper cell type 17 (Th17)/IL-17 involvement in canine idiopathic inflammatory and/or autoimmune diseases. As such, CCUS may represent a nonmouse model for other spontaneously occurring inflammatory diseases in canines and humans.
