Targeting Th17‐IL‐17 Pathway in Prevention of Micro‐Invasive Prostate Cancer in a Mouse Model

Abstract

Chronic inflammation has been associated with the development and progression of human cancers including prostate cancer. The exact role of the inflammatory Th17‐IL‐17 pathway in prostate cancer remains unknown. In this study, we aimed to determine the importance of Th17 cells and IL‐17 in a Pten‐null prostate cancer mouse model.
