Does iL-35 production by inducible costimulator ( ICOS ) -positive regulatory T cells reverses establish IL-17-dependent allergic airways disease?
IL-35 production by inducible costimulator-positive Treg cells can suppress IL-17 production and thereby reverse established, IL-17-dependent AHR in mice. Targeting this pathway might therefore be of therapeutic value for treating allergic asthma in human subjects.
