Chronic Toxoplasma gondii Infection Alleviates Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis by the Immune Regulation Inducing Reduction in IL-17A/Th17 Via Upregulation of SOCS3

This study suggests that the alleviation of EAE afterT. gondii infection is regulated in a SOCS3/STAT3/IL-17A/blood –brain barrier integrity-dependent manner. Although parasite infection would not be permitted for MS treatment, this study usingT. gondii infection identified potential targets that contribute to disease attenuation.
