This review focuses on CD4+ T cells involved in the mediation of inflammatory tissue damage in murine models of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs). In particular, we describe the distinct roles of the homeostatic cytokine IL-7, which is essential to the maintenance of colitogenic memory CD4+ cells, and the newly discovered effector cytokine IL-17. We also discuss the close correlation between colitogenic Th17-type CD4+ T cells and inducible CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells.
