ROS-dependent SOCS3 upregulation disrupts regulatory T cell stability during autoimmune disease development

Abstract excerpt

Autoimmune diseases including rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are often associated with high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS); however, the ROS targets in autoimmunity are diverse and unclear. Using collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mice as a model for RA, we report that antioxidants markedly suppress joint inflammation, antibody production, and effector T cell responses. We found that the frequency of CD4 +...
