The focus on IL-22, IL-23, IL-17, and the proinflammatory cyokines as well as secretion of matrix modifying molecules such as the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their specific tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) indicate the potential role for these cells in inflamatory bowel disease pathogenesis (Pubitemid 46498158)
