Summary
This protocol describes the differentiation of naïve CD4+ T cells into pathogenic Th17 cells in vitro. Specifically, when combined with a multi-parameter flow cytometry-based approach, 90% purity of pathogenic Th17 cells can be obtained from naïve CD4+ T cells using this differentiation method.
