Abstract
Multiple sclerosis and experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) are inflammatory diseases of the CNS in which Th17 cells play a major role in the disease pathogenesis. Th17 cells that secrete GM-CSF are pathogenic and drive inflammation of the CNS. IL-9 is a cytokine with pleiotropic functions, and it has been suggested that it controls the pathogenic inflammation mediated by Th17 cells, and IL-9R
