Induction of Hyper Th1 Cell-Type Immune Responses by Dendritic Cells Lacking the Suppressor of Cytokine Signaling-1 Gene
1 Apr 2005
Abstract excerpt
Suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS1/JAB) has been shown to play an important role in regulating dendritic cell (DC) function and suppressing inflammatory diseases and systemic autoimmunity. However, role of SOCS1 in DCs for the initiation of Th cell response has not been clarified. Here we demonstrate that SOCS1-deficient DCs induce stronger Th1-type responses both in vitro and in vivo. SOCS1-deficient DCs...
