ABSTRACT

The study of interleukin-17 (IL-17) has gotten a lot of attention in the last decade because of the cytokine's role in psoriasis and other autoinflammatory disorders, as well as the success of IL-17-targeting therapy in patients with these diseases. Pathologies caused by the cytokine IL-17 are distinct from those caused by the cytokine's beneficial effects. To conduct this research, we used a meta-analysis in which we searched Google Scholar, PubMed, and CrossRef using the keywords "fungal" and "IL-17." The author analysed five papers after the final screening. Border tissue colonisation can be controlled by IL-17, according to the study results. C. albicans is an extremely infectious pathogen, and IL-17 plays a critical role in protecting the host from the disease. There is evidence that IL-17 can also protect against species other than C. albicans, however. Anti-common pathogen defences might, under certain circumstances, lead to aggravation with undesirable consequences for the host, thereby giving parasites an entirely new role as disease-promoting components apart from their previous role as potential irresistible operators..
