Increased frequencies of human Th-17 CD4+ T-cells and decreased T-regulatory cells in patients with early and advanced metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease
The imbalance between Th17 and T-regulatory immune responses is present not only at cytokine level but also at a cellular level in MASLD. Especially in advanced disease, a higher percentage of IL-17 producing T-cells is coupled with the lower number of T-regulatory cells.
