Leishmania infantum-specific production of IL-17a in stimulated blood from dogs in different clinical stages of leishmaniosis
This study demonstrates that IL-17a production is increased in mild disease when compared with more advanced clinical stages, acting as a possible "resistance" marker. However, IL-17a seems to be less reliable as a marker when compared with IFN-γ.
