Study may lead to a novel treatment strategy for inflammatory diseases by manipulating IκBζ function

In the normal small intestine, the levels of SFB and Th17 cells are both maintained constant as they counterbalance each other. Th17 cells release IL-17 to limit unwanted expansion of SFB, whereas decrease in the number of SFB eases the restrictive action of Th17 cells.
