Paradox of Th17 cells functions in melanoma. On the one hand, Th17 cells in melanoma exert antitumoral function via inducing effector cells recruitment and activating tumor-specific cytotoxic CD8+T cells as well as transform to Th1 phenotype. On the other hand, Th17 cells exhibit protumor function by promoting angiogenesis, melanoma cells proliferation and phenotype change toward Tregs.
