CD4+ helper T-cell differentiate into at this time at least five well-defined subsets: Th0, Th1, Th2, Treg, Th17, and T follicular helper that can both promote and inhibit the behavior of each other. The lymphokine IL-15 is an important IL-2-related cytokine whose role in helper subset differentiation and proliferation has not been fully elucidated. In this study, we show that exogenous IL-15 decreased IL-17A production in Th17 differentiating cultures. Neutralization of IL-15 led to increases in IL-17A production in Th17 cultures. Both Il15(-/-) and Il15r(-/-) T cell cultures displayed higher frequency of IL-17A producers and higher amounts of IL-17A in the supernatants compared with those of wild-type (WT) cells in vitro. IL-15 down-modulated IL-17A production independently of retinoic acid-related orphan receptor-γt, Foxp3, and IFN-γ expression. Both Th17 cells and APCs produced IL-15, which induced binding of STAT5, an apparent repressor to the Il17 locus in CD4 T cells. Also, in a model of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-induced experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), Il15(-/-) mice displayed exacerbated inflammation-correlating with increased IL-17A production by their CD4(+) T cells-compared with WT controls. Exogenous IL-15 administration and IL-17A neutralization reduced the severity of EAE in Il15(-/-) mice. Taken together, these data indicate that IL-15 has a negative regulatory role for IL-17A production and Th17-mediated inflammation.

CD4+辅助性T细胞分化为至少五个明确的亚群：Th0、Th1、Th2、Treg、Th17和T滤泡辅助性T细胞，它们可以促进和抑制彼此的行为。淋巴因子IL-15是一种重要的il -2相关细胞因子，其在辅助亚群分化和增殖中的作用尚未完全阐明。在这项研究中，我们发现外源IL-15减少了Th17分化培养中IL-17A的产生。中和IL-15导致Th17培养中IL-17A的产生增加。与野生型（WT）细胞相比，Il15（-/-）和Il15r(-/-) T细胞培养的上清液中IL-17A产生的频率更高，IL-17A的含量也更高。IL-15下调IL-17A的产生，独立于视黄酸相关孤儿受体-&#947；t， Foxp3和IFN-表达。Th17细胞和APCs均产生IL-15，诱导CD4 T细胞中il - 17位点的抑制因子STAT5结合。此外，在髓鞘少突胶质细胞糖蛋白诱导的实验性自身免疫性脑脊髓炎（EAE）模型中，与WT对照组相比，Il15（-/-）小鼠表现出加重的炎症——与CD4(+) T细胞产生的IL-17A增加相关。外源性IL-15给药和IL-17A中和降低了IL-15（-/-）小鼠EAE的严重程度。综上所述，这些数据表明IL-15对IL-17A的产生和th17介导的炎症具有负调控作用。
