IL17A and COVID-19: To explore whether the leucocyte response is limited by COVID-19, we stimulated cells with LPS or PMA/Ion, and a clear proinflammatory response with cytokines such as TNF-α, CCL3, CCL4, IL-17a, CCL23 and CXCL8 was detected in the supernatant, indicating that leucocytes are not anergic.
