SOCS3 and infection: Since gp130F/F were more susceptible to M. tuberculosis than Socs3fl/fl LysM cre mice, and lethally irradiated WT that were reconstituted with gp130F/F BM were more resistant to infection than gp130F/F or WT BM→ gp130F/F mice, we also suggest that gp130-dependent SOCS3-signalling in non-hematopoietic cells contributes to the control of infection with M. tuberculosis.
