Suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS)-1 and SOCS-3 are members of a family of inducible intracellular proteins that negatively regulate cytokine signaling in cells of hematopoietic origin and may influence the Th1 to Th2 balance.
|

|
SOCS-1 and SOCS-3 are induced by cytokines that are known to be up-regulated during EAE, including IFN-gamma (IFN-g) and IL-6, respectively.

|
To test the hypothesis that the level of induction of SOCS-1 and SOCS-3 correlates with the course of EAE, mRNA levels were compared in spinal cords of SJL and B6 mice during discrete stages of disease.
|

|
SOCS-1 and SOCS-3 were elevated throughout active disease in both strains.
|
| 5 |

|
At peak EAE, SOCS-1 was higher and SOCS-3 was lower in B6 cords compared with SJL cords.
|
| 6 |

|
This correlated with greater expression of the Th1 cytokine, IFN-g, and less of the Th2 cytokine, IL-10, in B6 cords relative to SJL cords during onset and peak disease.
|
| 7 |

|
SOCS-3 inducers in the IL-6 family were expressed differentially between the strains.

|
IL-6 and leukemia inhibitory factor were higher at onset in B6 cords whereas ciliary neurotrophic factor was increased in SJL cords during peak disease.
