Fig. 10. IFN-I indirectly promotes TH17 pathogenicity.

Fig. 10

Data from Fig. 9 indicate that IFN-I stimulates the expression of IL-6 and IL-12p40 from activated B cells which, in the context of auto-antigen, supports the proliferation of inflammatory TH17 cells. In contrast, IFN-I stimulation of naive B cells elevates IL-10 and not IL-6 and does not efficiently promote inflammatory TH17 cell proliferation.
