Targeting the IL-17 Pathway in Inflammatory Disorders, 2017:Back cover ("IL-17 is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that has a key role in inflammation, autoimmunity, and host defense in a number of inflammatory disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis, ankylosing spondylitis, multiple sclerosis, and inflammatory bowel disease. The discovery of the IL-17/Th17 pathway has seen exciting development in the field of immunology and inflammation research, which has led to a number of recent regulatory approvals")
