Summary
[Homo sapiens] IL17C is an essential autocrine cytokine that regulates innate epithelial immune responses.
[Mus musculus] Il17c is an essential autocrine cytokine that regulates innate epithelial immune responses. (Demonstrated in human)
[Mus musculus] Microbiota-driven Il17c induces Bcl2 and Bcl2l1 expression in intestinal epithelial cells in an autocrine manner to promote cell survival and tumorigenesis in both chemically induced and spontaneous intestinal tumor models.
Entrez Gene
Summary This gene does not have any Entrez summary - the following is the summary from its human ortholog ENSG00000124391:
The protein encoded by this gene is a T cell-derived cytokine that shares the sequence similarity with IL17. This cytokine was reported to stimulate the release of tumor necrosis factor alpha and interleukin 1 beta from a monocytic cell line. The expression of this cytokine was found to be restricted to activated T cells. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
