IL-12p35 Subunit Contributes to Autoimmunity by Limiting IL-27–Driven Regulatory Responses

Abstract excerpt

Contrasting results have emerged from studies performed using IL-12p35(-/-) mice. Animals lacking the IL-12p35 subunit can either be protected from or develop exacerbated autoimmune diseases, intracellular infections, and delayed-type hypersensitivity responses. In this study, we report that mice lacking the IL-12p35 subunit develop a significantly milder Ag-induced arthritis compared with wild-type (WT) mice....
