Suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1) is a negative regulator of JAK/STAT signaling and is induced by mycobacterial infection. To understand the major function of SOCS1 during infection, we established a novel system in which recombinant Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guérin expressed dominant-negative SOCS1 (rBCG-SOCS1DN) because it would not affect the function of SOCS1 in uninfected cells. When C57BL/6 mice and RAG1−/−mice were intratracheally inoculated with rBCG-SOCS1DN, the amount of rBCG-SOCS1DN in the lungs was significantly reduced compared to that in the lungs of mice inoculated with a vector control counterpart and wild-type BCG. However, these significant differences were not observed in NOS2−/−mice and RAG1−/−NOS2−/−double-knockout mice. These findings demonstrated that SOCS1 inhibits nitric oxide (NO) production to establish mycobacterial infection and that rBCG-SOCS1DN has the potential to be a powerful tool for studying the primary function of SOCS1 in mycobacterial infection.
