title: Defining control: regulation of dendritic cell activation and immune homeostasis by SOCS1.
abstract: SOCS1 is a key regulator of cytokine signaling and is important for maintaining balance in the immune system. In addition to roles in T, NKT, and macrophage cell function, a new study indicates that SOCS1 modulates dendritic cell activation and may help prevent autoimmunity.
