Abstract
⺠IL-17 is expressed constitutively within retinal tissues of healthy C57BL/6 mice. ⺠IL-17 levels in whole splenic cells increase during the progression of MAIDS. ⺠Cell populations other than CD4+ T cells contribute to IL-17 production during MAIDS. ⺠MCMV infection downregulates IL-17 production during health and MAIDS. ⺠MCMV-induced downregulation of IL-17 may involve upregulation of SOCS-3 and IL-10.
