Lambiase A et al. – The authors report an increased localization of Th17 lymphocytes in OCP conjunctiva, not accompanied by similar findings in peripheral blood. This finding suggests an increased recruitment of Th17 lymphocytes in conjunctiva and/or a dysfunctional local immune response in the chronically inflamed conjunctiva of OCP. Findings are in line with previously reported evidence demonstrating that Th17 cells play a critical pathogenic role in mucosal autoimmunity.
