Overproduction of NO and axonal damage in atypical EAE. (A) CRB-, BS-, and SC-infiltrating mononuclear cells isolated at the peak of disease from SOCS3fl/fl mice with classical EAE or LysMCre-SOCS3fl/fl mice with atypical EAE were cultured for 24 h, and supernatants were analyzed for nitrite by the Griess reaction (n = 4 cultures/group). Mean ± SD. (B) Protein extracts from CRB of unimmunized (UN) or MOG35–55-immunized SOCS3fl/fl with classical EAE or LysMCre-SOCS3fl/fl mice with atypical EAE were immunoblotted with the indicated Abs. **p < 0.01.
